Downward and Forward-Looking Digital Camera Movies with data [(NCAR-RAF)]
Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research
During NOMADSS, the NCAR C-130 flew both forward and downward looking digital cameras for in-flight video capture.
Description
Individual photo jpeg images were captured once per second during flights. Images taken after dark have been stripped from this archive.
Remaining forward and downward images for each second were combined into a single image and processed to include production data along the right side of the image and converted to Quicktime movie files. The movies are h.264 codec playable with Quicktime (Mac and Windows), xine, (linux) and mplayer (many platforms). The original images are 1024x768 pixels and were recorded at 1 frame/second.

The multi-frame movies are set to play back at 712x768 pixels and 15 fps.
