In June of 2007 Visidyne deployed three, second-generation SAM instruments to Oklahoma to support the DOE/ARM CLASIC and DOE/ASP CHAPS field campaigns (http://acrf-campaign.arm.gov/clasic/).

A description of the SAM data products is contained in the short paper, "Description of SAM (Sun and Aureole Measurement) Sensor Data Collected in Support of CLASIC and CHAPS". The level 1 data (by date) is made available at that site.
