CALIPSO: Cloud and Aerosol Lidar Level 1B Version 3-02 Product (CAL_LID_L1-ValStage1-V3-02)

The Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) was a joint-mission between NASA and the French space agency Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales. The main objectives of the mission was to supply unique data set of vertical cloud and aerosol profiles.

This dataset contains cloud and aerosol lidar level 1B version 3-02 data product, which contains processed Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) Level 0 Data and post processed ephemeris data, celestial data and converted payload status data. Version 3-02 marks the transition to a new cluster computing system without any changes in the algorithm used in version 3-01. The resulting impact on the products are very minor.
