Information Regarding TARFOX-LASE Images


Flight 9 / Profile Focus - Bermuda Overflight / 26 July 96

Color images of LASE (ER-2) Flight Track

Flight tracks are shown for when LASE data are available. The track has been split into segments to enhance labeling of UT time, therefore, aerosol and water vapor images can be easily linked to the ER-2 LASE track. Two points of interest are normally placed on the map of the local area. These are Wallops Island and the TARFOX focal point for that day (Point A, if available): | 18:18:24 -- 19:23:20 | 19:23:20 -- 21:17:33 | 21:17:33 -- 23:01:35 |
