ATLAS/ICESat-2 L1B Converted Telemetry Data V006

Description

This data set (ATL02) contains science-unit-converted time-ordered telemetry data, calibrated for instrument effects, downlinked from the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) instrument on board the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) observatory. The data are used by the ATLAS/ICESat-2 Science Investigator-led Processing System (SIPS) for system-level, quality control analysis and as source data for ATLAS/ICESat-2 Level-2 products and Precision Orbit Determination (POD) and Precision Pointing Determination (PPD) computations.
