First plots from the only continuous run on 6/29/2007:

Trolley heading from flux-gate compass (black), GPS (green), and expected from tower positions (red). Tower transits are indicated with vertical purple lines with tower numbers at bottom of plot. Note the RF data stream is continuous (sufficient range), but that the GPS signal drops out in some locations. The course bypasses tower #6 on the low leg (11->1).
Some data from the trolley. Note that the sonic anemometer data were bad during this run (cause as yet unknown). Also, the CO2 calibration has not been checked.

None yet.
