Description:This report describes the operation of NOAA/ARL/ATDD's DJI S-1000 small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS) in the Verifications of the Origins of Rotation in Tornadoes Experiment Southeast (VORTEX-SE) in the spring of 2017. The S-1000 was used to measure temperature and humidity profiles in the lower 213 m of the atmosphere, and to map the Earth's skin temperature during four intensive observation periods (25 March, 27 March, 05 April, and 28 April) in the VORTEX-SE experiment. ATDD and NOAA/OMAO/AOC personnel also flew the Microdrone MD4-1000 sUAS during the 28 April intensive. During this intensive, four 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. [doi:10.7289/V5/TM-OAR-ARL-274 (http://dx.doi.org/10.7289/V5/TM-OAR-ARL-274)]
