Description
Summary:A0 level data from HELiX Uncrewed Aircraft System correspond to the raw data in Matlab format collected in the Central Arctic Ocean during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition. Synchronized and quality-controlled B1 level data are available in the Arctic Data Center. Users are encouraged to primarily use the B1 level data for analysis (doi:10.18739/A2GH9BB0Q). Raw data are the initial inputs in the processing routines to obtain the B1 and A1 level data (doi:10.18739/A2M90243X). Matlab files include hemispheric irradiance measurements from Kipp and Zonen pyranometers and thermodynamic parameters from Vaisala RSS421 sensors. Autopilot positions and attitudes, along with gimbal attitudes are also provided. Each field of measurements has its own time stamped based on a common clock and associated acquisition frequency. As no Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time was provided in the FlexLogger acquisition files, the additional A0_PixHawk Matlab files obtained directly from the PixHawk autopilot are used to add UTC time for B1 level data. Please contact the authors if you need to use this dataset. More information on the data and method can be found in de Boer, G. R. Calmer, G. Jozef, J. Cassano, J. Hamilton, D. Lawrence, S.
