Sodar - PNNL Scintec MFAS, Oregon Raceway Park - Raw Data

Published by Wind Energy Technologies Office (WETO) | Department of Energy | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2021-10-11T00:00:00Z
**Overview** Provide measurements of wind speed and direction up to 400 m AGL (max). The data are stored in 2 forms: ASCII and raw (binary). ASCII files contain averaged data (currently -- 15 min time step and 10 m range gate); raw files could be reprocessed with the sodar software (APRun by Scintec) to produce ASCII files with different time and/or height averaging settings (highest resolution is approx. 90 sec and 10 m). **Data Quality** No QC checks beyond implemented in the sodar software/firmware (APRun 1.46 by Scintec)
