## Summary

These materials are associated with the publication “High-altitude
demonstration of LWIR polarimeter using uncooled microbolometers”.

The pre-flight Zip file includes all data taken before the HAB was launched.
The other Zip files include all data taken after launch. Each HDF5 file
contains images from both IRCSP cameras and their FPA temperatures. The
demodulation method is explained in the paper. The following Python script can
be used to produce the final DoLP, AoLP, and Tb results:
