WOEST: Scan data from the NCAS mobile X-band radar unit 1 deployed at MOD Lyneham, v1.0.0 (20230525-20230908)

Scan data from the National Centre for Atmospheric Science Atmospheric Measurement and Observation Facility's mobile X-band radar unit 1 deployed at MOD Lyneham, near Swindon, Wiltshire, UK (51.5071N, -2.00547E) from May to September 2023. These observations were taken as part of the WesCon - Observing the Evolving Structures of Turbulence (WOEST) project between 20230525 and 20230908.

Data products from this deployment include: volume scans (vol) and vertical cross sections (rhi). The radar performed two sets of volume scans, alternating approximately every 5 minutes, using different parameters for targeting the boundary layer and clouds. Following the volume scans the radar performed a single vertical cross-section. The whole cycle repeated every 10 minutes.
