ACES Aircraft and Mechanical Data

The ACES Aircraft and Mechanical Data consist of aircraft (e.g. pitch, roll, yaw) and mechanical (e.g. aircraft engine speed, tail commands, fuel levels) data recorded by the Altus II Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (Altus II UAV) system during the Altus Cumulus Electrification Study (ACES) based at the Naval Air Facility Key West in Florida. ACES aimed to provide extensive observations of the cloud electrification process and its effects by using the Altus II UAV to collect cloud top observations of thunderstorms. The campaign also worked to validate satellite lightning measurements. The Altus II aircraft and mechanical data files are available from July 10 through August 30, 2002 in MATLAB data format (.mat).ACES 飞机与机械数据集包含了由 Altus II 无人航空器系统（Altus II UAV）记录的飞机（例如俯仰、滚转、偏航）和机械（例如飞机引擎转速、尾部指令、油位）数据，这些数据是在佛罗里达州基韦斯特海军航空站进行的 Altus Cumulus Electrification Study（ACES）期间收集的。ACES 项目旨在通过利用 Altus II 无人航空器收集雷暴云顶观测数据，对云电离过程及其影响进行广泛观测。此外，该活动还致力于验证卫星闪电测量数据。Altus II 飞机与机械数据文件以 MATLAB 数据格式（.mat）形式，从 2002 年 7 月 10 日至 8 月 30 日可供获取。
