The primary goal of the network measurements was to observe the spatial structure of convective cold pools at sub-mesoscale resolution (100 m - 10 km). During the experiment, 82 low-cost and custom-designed APOLLO (Autonomous cold POoL LOgger) stations sampled air temperature and pressure at 1-s resolution, while 21 WXT weather stations based on commercial sensors provided additional information on relative humidity, wind speed and precipitation at 10-s resolution. The data of all network stations is stored in daily files separated after station type and measurement variable.<br>\n<br>\n<strong>Quality:</strong><br>\nAbsolute accuracy of temperature (pressure) generally better than +/- 0.5 K (1 hPa), however, the instrument design focused on the relative accuracy of measurements. The overall data availability of temperature measurements for APOLLO (WXT) stations is 92.0 % (98.1 %).
