S1 Locating contrails in CALIOP dataThe process of locating contrails detected in GOES-16 ABI imagery in CALIOP LIDAR data involved two steps.The first "coarse" step considers whether contrails are detected within 50 km of the CALIPSO ground track as it passes over the domain, which is defined by the bounds of the orthographic projection used for the contrail detections.This is done by using the contrails detected at the time corresponding to approximately halfway the CALIPSO overpass.Given that such an overpass 5
