Long-range pulsed lidar data from the Balconies experiment, phase 2, installed in the southern met-mast, westerlies

Database file containing data collected during in the Balconies experiment by a long-range pulsed lidar, installed at 200 m.a.g.l. in the southern mast at the Østerild Test Centre, Denmark.Details of the Balconies experiment cna be found in doi :10.1088/1742-6596/1037/5/052029<br>The database consists of two tables:Table_raw: raw lidar scansTable_fil: filtered lidar scans using the methodology described in doi :10.5194/amt-13-6237-2020.Both tables contain the following columns,'name': TEXT containing the date of the measurement'scan': BIGINT scan number covering a complete azimuthal swept of 45 degrees. It starts at 0.'index': BIGINT, row index'start_id': BIGINT parameter of the windscanner file storing system.'stop_id': BIGINT parameter of the windscanner file storing system.'start_time': FLOAT start time of line-of-sight measurement in Mac epoch, seconds since 1904-01-01 00:00.'stop_time': FLOAT stop time of line-of-sight measurement in Mac epoch, seconds since 1904-01-01 00:00.'azim': FLOAT azimuth angle of the line-of-sight measurements in degrees.'elev': FLOAT elevation angle of the line-of-sight measurements in degrees.'range_gate_NN': BIGINT distance between lidar and center of range gate, in meters. NN identifier goes form 0 to 197.'ws_NN': FLOAT line-of-sight wind speed meters per second at the center of the range gate. Negative values indicate the wind is blowing towards the lidar. NN identifier goes form 0 to 197.'CNR_NN': FLOAT Carrier-to-noise ratio at the center of the range gate, in dB. NN identifier goes form 0 to 197.'Sb_NN' : FLOAT Spectral broadening at the center of the range gate, in meters per second. NN identifier goes form 0 to 197.<br><br>
