Description

CONDOR is a multi-static meteor radar system with the main station at Cerro Pachón, Chile, next to the Andes Lidar Observatory (ALO) and two remote stations at Las Campanas Observatory (LCO) 137 km to the north and Southern Cross Observatory (SCO) near Combarbalá to the south.  The system was built and installed by ATRAD, Inc.. It has been in operation since the summer 2019. 

This dataset is the horizontal wind from CONDOR meteor radar system at 1-hr, 30-min, and 15-min temporal resolution from all three stations.  It is one of the standard products of this meteor radar system.
