本文描述了内布拉斯加大学林肯分校（UNL）收集的数据，作为2018年7月在海拔低大气过程研究-遥控飞机团队实验（LAPSE-RATE）飞行活动期间现场部署的一部分。UNL在圣路易斯山谷（美国科罗拉多州）的多个地点部署了两个多旋翼无人机系统（UAS）进行数据收集，以支持三项科学任务：对流启动、边界层过渡和冷空气排放流。我们进行了172次飞行，累计飞行时间超过21小时。我们在这些飞行中采用了UAS机载传感器外壳的新颖设计，以满足温度和湿度传感器的吸气和屏蔽要求，并将它们与螺旋桨的混合湍流气流分离。本文提供的数据包括从传感器收集的带有时间戳的温度和湿度数据，沿着UAS的三维位置和速度。使用零阶保持插值对数据进行质量控制和时间同步，无需额外的后处理。
This paper describes the data collected by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) as part of the field deployments during the Lower Atmospheric Process Studies at Elevation - a Remotely-piloted Aircraft Team Experiment (LAPSE-RATE) flight campaign in July 2018. The UNL deployed two multirotor unmanned aerial systems (UASs) at multiple sites in the San Luis Valley (Colorado, USA) for data collection to support three science missions: convection initiation, boundary layer transition, and cold air drainage flow. We conducted 172 flights resulting in over 21 h of cumulative flight time. Our novel design for the sensor housing onboard the UAS was employed in these flights to meet the aspiration and shielding requirements of the temperature and humidity sensors and to separate them from the mixed turbulent airflow from the propellers. Data presented in this paper include timestamped temperature and humidity data collected from the sensors, along with the three-dimensional position and velocity of the UAS. Data are quality-controlled and time-synchronized using a zero-order-hold interpolation without additional post-processing.
