2018年7月14日至20日，小型无人驾驶飞机系统（UAS）与地面遥感器，原位传感器和无线电探空仪系统一起部署到科罗拉多的圣路易斯山谷（美国），作为海拔低大气剖面研究-远程驾驶飞机团队实验（LAPSE-RAIE）的一部分。作为LAPSE-RAIE的一部分，收集的测量数据旨在提高我们对边界层结构、云和气溶胶特性以及地表-大气交换的理解，并提供详细信息以支持模式评估和改进工作。此外，还完成了不同无人驾驶飞机平台之间的深入比较。本文件介绍了使用三种不同类型的地面移动的观测飞行器获得的观测结果。其中包括科罗拉多大学移动的无人机系统研究合作实验室（MURC）、国家海洋和大气管理局国家强风暴实验室移动的Mesonet和内布拉斯加大学的两个Mesonet和跟踪器组合（CoMeT）飞行器。在为期1周的活动中，使用这种车辆组合共收集了143 h的数据。从这些协调活动的数据提供了详细的观点，在整个圣路易斯山谷的北方的大气状态参数（空气温度，湿度，压力和风）的空间变异。这些数据集已经过质量检查，并在LAPSE-RAIE的特定“社区”设置下发布到Zenodo数据存档（https：//zenodo.org/communities/lapse-rate/，最后访问日期：2021年1月21日），所有注册用户均可免费访问。主要数据集DOI是https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3814765（CU MURC测量; de Boer等人，2020 d）、https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3738175（NSSL MM测量; Waugh，2020）和https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3838724（UNL CoMeT测量; Houston和Erwin，2020）。
Between 14 and 20 July 2018, small unmanned aircraft systems (UASs) were deployed to the San Luis Valley of Colorado (USA) alongside surface-based remote sensors, in situ sensors, and radiosonde systems as part of the Lower Atmospheric Profiling Studies at Elevation - a Remotely-piloted Aircraft Team Experiment (LAPSE-RAIE). The measurements collected as part of LAPSE-RAIE targeted quantities related to enhancing our understanding of boundary layer structure, cloud and aerosol properties and surface-atmosphere exchange and provide detailed information to support model evaluation and improvement work. Additionally, intensive intercomparison between the different unmanned aircraft platforms was completed. The current paper describes the observations obtained using three different types of surface-based mobile observing vehicles. These included the University of Colorado Mobile UAS Research Collaboratory (MURC), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Severe Storms Laboratory Mobile Mesonet, and two University of Nebraska Combined Mesonet and Tracker (CoMeT) vehicles. Over the 1-week campaign, a total of 143 h of data were collected using this combination of vehicles. The data from these coordinated activities provide detailed perspectives on the spatial variability of atmospheric state parameters (air temperature, humidity, pressure, and wind) throughout the northern half of the San Luis Valley. These datasets have been checked for quality and published to the Zenodo data archive under a specific "community" setup for LAPSE-RAIE (https://zenodo.org/communities/lapse-rate/, last access: 21 January 2021) and are accessible at no cost by all registered users. The primary dataset DOIs are https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3814765 (CU MURC measurements; de Boer et al., 2020d), https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3738175 (NSSL MM measurements; Waugh, 2020), and https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3838724 (UNL CoMeT measurements; Houston and Erwin, 2020).
