There may be a slight typo about the horizontal resolution for the HSRL data. The horizontal resolution was given at 200 m for a typical 200 m/s flight speed, but I think the resolution is 5 Hz, which would correspond to 40 m horizontal resolution.

Sources: https://eurec4a.aeris-data.fr/landing-page/?uuid=ef3783b1-2ee6-4043-b088-5430ba486096 and quoted from Konow et al, 2021, "For the WALES cloud mask lidar raw data at a temporal resolution of 5 Hz were used, which corresponds to 40 m horizontal spacing. The vertical resolution of the backscatter data is 7.5 m"

Thanks @annalea-albright ! That's absolutely correct. Thanks for noting and taking the time to correct it :)
