Lidar - California - Leosphere Windcube 866 (130), Morro Bay - Processed Data

Publicly accessible License 

**Overview**

The purpose of this dataset is to provide preliminary filtered, averaged lidar data and standardize the data format of various data streams from the buoy into NetCDF. The attached Lidar Buoy Data Dictionary provides further details on the various instruments mounted on the buoys, parameters measured by each instrument, and the frequency of data collection.

**Data Details**

The lidar wind directions from the raw data were corrected by adding 180 degrees, due to a field error in connecting the Global Positioning System (GPS) leads to the lidar unit.

**Data Quality**

Standard filtering thresholds on the averaged data were applied and several data format issues of the raw data were streamlined to create a standardized NetCDF format data.

**Uncertainty**

The uncertainty of lidar data has not been analyzed, but it is not expected to deviate from instrument technical specifications.
