Description:
This report describes the operation of small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) by NOAA's Air Resources Laboratory, Atmospheric Turbulence and Diffusion Division (NOAA/ARL/ATDD) in the Land-Atmosphere Feedback Experiment (LAFE) that was conducted in the summer of 2017 near Lamont, Oklahoma. Both the DJI S-1000 and the Microdrone MD4-1000 were used to measure temperature and humidity profiles in the lower 300 m of the atmosphere, and the S-1000 was used to map the Earth's skin temperature during three intensive observation periods (14 August, 15 August, and 17 August) in the LAFE experiment. NOAA/OMAO/AOC personnel also flew the Microdrone MD4-1000 sUAS during the 14 and 15 August intensives. During these intensives, fourteen MD4-1000 flights were flown simultaneously with the DJI S-1000. Datasets from both the DJI S-1000 and the Microdrone MD4-1000 aircraft were processed and are publicly available.
