NOAA Cooperative Agency Profiler (CAP) Network Data

This data set contains 30-minute or hourly profiles of wind speed, wind direction and virtual temperature from profilers around the world (including several in California). These are typically 915 MHz boundary layer profilers; some also include Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS). The data were acquired from NOAA/ESRL/GSD and include data from a number of agencies. The data are in netCDF.
