S-MODE MASS Level 1 Lidar Point Cloud Version 1
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/smode-mass1l
This dataset contains geolocated airborne LiDAR point cloud measurements from the Sub-Mesoscale Ocean Dynamics Experiment (S-MODE) conducted approximately 300 km offshore of San Francisco during a pilot campaign over two weeks in October 2021, and two intensive operating periods (IOPs) in Fall 2022 and Spring 2023.
Description
S-MODE aims to understand how ocean dynamics acting on short spatial scales influence the vertical exchange of physical and biological variables in the ocean.
The Modular Aerial Sensing System (MASS) is an airborne instrument package that is mounted on the DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft which flies long duration detailed surveys of the field domain during deployments. MASS includes a high resolution LiDAR, used to characterize the properties of ocean surface topography. The sensor has a maximum pulse repetition rate of 400 kHz, with a +/- 30° cross-heading raster scan rate of 200 Hz.
