RAAVEN UAS Data

Flight level meteorological and aircraft state data from the University of Colorado RAAVEN (Robust Autonomous Aerial Vehicle - Endurant and Nimble) sUAS (small Unmanned Aircraft System) platform that flew during the TORUS-LItE (Targeted Observations using Radars and UAS in Supercells Left Flank Intensive Experiment ) campaign over the plains region of the United States. The UAS flew near inflow and left flank missions in and around supercell thunderstorms.
