Five types of data were collected, and all types include data for various levels, such as "significant level" and flight level. The reports may include pressure, geopotential height, temperature, dew point depression, wind direction and speed. The five types are: 1) radiosondes and pibals launched from land stations and ships (includes 20 mandatory levels from 1000 millibars to 1 millibar), 2) aircraft flight level reports from commercial, military and reconnaissance sources, 3) satellite infrared sounding observations, 4) satellite winds derived from cloud drift analysis, and 5) data from aircraft takeoffs and landings. completed datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact notPlanned dataset NCEP ON29 dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral WEATHER STATIONS > WEATHER STATIONS Ships FIXED OBSERVATION STATIONS > FIXED OBSERVATION STATIONS GROUND STATIONS > GROUND STATIONS METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS > METEOROLOGICAL STATIONS OCEAN WEATHER STATIONS AIRCRAFT MOVING SHIPS FIXED SHIPS U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms GTS > Global Telecommunications System WRF > WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) Modeling U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Projects EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WINDS > UPPER LEVEL WINDS EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ALTITUDE > BAROMETRIC ALTITUDE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC WATER VAPOR > WATER VAPOR INDICATORS > DEW POINT TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC TEMPERATURE > UPPER AIR TEMPERATURE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE > ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE MEASUREMENTS EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > CLOUDS > CLOUD PROPERTIES > CLOUD FREQUENCY EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ALTITUDE > TROPOPAUSE EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > ALTITUDE > GEOPOTENTIAL HEIGHT U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-02-27 revision 23.4 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None eng utf-8 climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere 1972-12-20 2007-02-28 NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 195224.944 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d353004/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d353004/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
