Sodar - PNNL Scintec MFAS, Oregon Raceway Park - Reviewed Data
**Overview**
These data provide measurements of wind speed and direction up to 400 m above ground level (AGL) (max). The data are stored in two forms: ASCII and raw (binary). ASCII files contain averaged data (currently: 15 min time step and 10 m range gate). Raw files can be reprocessed with sodar software (APRun by Scintec) to produce ASCII files with different time and/or height averaging settings (highest resolution is approximately 90 sec and 10 m).
NOTE: Wind direction is reported with respect to magnetic North.
**Data Quality**
No quality control (QC) checks beyond those implemented in the sodar software/firmware, APRun 1.46 by Scintec.
