Radiosonde measurements co-located with ascends of the unmanned aerial system LUCA (Panker, Germany, 2021-10-25 to 2021-10-29)

The dataset contains meteorological observations from radiosondes during a measurement campaign with the drone LUCA (Lightweight high Ceiling Aerial System). The measurements were collected between the 25th and the 29th October 2021 at rather erratic launch times, as operations from the military training area Todendorf (Panker) in Northern Germany within the restricted airspace belonging to it depend on air traffic control clearance. As parameters, pressure, temperature, humidity and wind direction/speed were observed along with time and position of the radiosonde. The data allows intercomparing the radiosonde with collocated drone measurements which enables a discussion on the possible use of the drone LUCA and similar systems for operational meteorology

Atmospheric profile measurements conducted by the unmanned aerial system LUCA (Panker, Germany, flight 20211026_Flug1_LUCA1)

The dataset contains meteorological observations during a measurement campaign with the drone LUCA (Lightweight high Ceiling Aerial System). The measurements were collected on flight 20211025_Flug1_LUCA1. As parameters, pressure, temperature, humidity and wind direction/speed were observed along with time and position of the drone. Besides the raw measurements, temperature and humidity readings have been corrected with an estimated inverse sensor transfer function. The data allows intercomparing the drone measurements with collocated radiosonde launches which enables a discussion on the possible use of the drone LUCA and similar systems for operational meteorology
