The EUFAR dataset combines data from the projects and training courses funded under the European Facility for Airborne Research in Environmental and Geo-sciences (EUFAR) FP7 project (2008-2013) and its successor EUFAR2 (2014-2018). EUFAR is an Integrating Activity of the 7th Framework Program of the European Commission. EUFAR2 brings together 24 European institutions and organisations involved in airborne research, operating 18 instrumented aircraft and providing access to 3 hyperspectral instruments. Data include measurements by airborne in situ atmospheric instuments and hyperspectral instruments operated on board aircraft of the EUFAR fleet during projects funded under transnational access and during training events for both EUFAR and EUFAR2.
The EUFAR Flight Finder tool (EFF) has been developed at CEDA as part of the EUFAR2 N8DB data archive work-package. This is a geospatial-temporal search interface to locate EUFAR data within the EUFAR data archive at CEDA and can be found at http://flight-finder.ceda.ac.uk/.
The aim of the EFF is to facilitate the location and identification of EUFAR flights and to link to the appropriate data files in the archive. Users can search by geographical area on a map interface, by temporal constraints or using key words or parameter names. Results are displayed on the map; clicking on a flight will show further details and links to the data. Help sheets and a Tutorial video are provided to get you started.
As EUFAR and EUFAR2 are EU-funded projects, data in the EUFAR archive are available to all users registered with the CEDA (anyone can register). This is an online, click-through application.
The table below shows the data archived for each EUFAR-related project. The table can be sorted by
project name,
date or
aircraft used.
