BEAT-II Record: GOME_L1_EXTRACTED_sun_reference
Fields
The table below gives an overview of possible fields that can be returned from an ingestion of GOME_L1_EXTRACTED_sun_reference data. The 'default' column indicates whether the specified data item is included in the ingestion by default or not. You can change which data items are ingested by making use of the include and exclude filter options (see below).
| field name | type | dimensions | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
type | string | included | reference to the type of data in this record | |
time | double | [main] | included | The time of the measurement at end of integration time (in seconds since 2000-01-01 00:00:00) |
spectral_irradiance | double | [main, spectra] | included | The sun spectrum spectral_irradiance |
spectral_irradiance_unit | string | included | photons/s.cm^2.nm | |
spectral_irradiance_error | double | [main, spectra] | included | Relative Radiometric Precision of the Sun Reference Spectrum |
wavelength | double | [main, spectra] | included | The nominal wavelength assignment for each of the detector pixels |
wavelength_unit | string | included | nm |
Ingestion filter options
Ingestion filter options are passed as a ',' or ';' separated string to the ingestion function. Each filter option needs to be formulated as option_name=value[ value value] (some options accept more than one value). For example, if a product has filter options 'altitude_min' and 'time_min' you can provide a filter option string "latitude_min=30,time_min=2003-01-01" to get all measurements at or above 30km and on or after January 1st 2003.
| option name | type | description |
|---|---|---|
product_version | integer | If multiple product format versions for this product type exist, you can use this filter option to select from which ones data should be ingested (i.e. you can provide a space-separated list of allowed product format version numbers). The list of available version numbers for this product type can be found in the CODA Product Format Definitions documentation. |
data | string | Since this record type is not the default type of data that will be ingested for a GOME_L1_EXTRACTED product, you will have to provide a filter option data=sun_reference to get this type of record. |
include | string | Provide a space-separated list of field names to ingest additional data items (i.e. fields that are not ingested by default). You can use the special case include=* to indicate that you want to ingest all available data items. |
exclude | string | Provide a space-separated list of field names that you don't want ingested. Mind that the exclude filter is processed after the include filter. |
time_min | time* | Only include elements for which the value is greater than or equal to the provided filter option value |
time_max | time* | Only include elements for which the value is less than or equal to the provided filter option value |
time | time* | Only include elements that match the list of given filter option values |
wavelength_min | double | Only include data where the wavelength is greater then or equal to the value provided (in nm) |
wavelength_max | double | Only include data where the wavelength is less than or equal to the value provided (in nm) |
* Time values can be passed as either 'yyyy-mm-dd', 'yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss', 'yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss.uuuuuu' or a floating point value indicating the amount of seconds since 2000-01-01 00:00:00.
Mapping description
Below a description is provided on how each data item in the ingested record was retrieved from the product.
It is important to note that in a GOME level 1 product all measurement times are end times and if there is a high integration time measurement it will be ingested together with the last measurement of the low integration time measurements (instead of ingesting it together with the first measurement). If for a certain measurement time only measurements with a high integration time (> 1.5 seconds) are ingested the associated geolocation information will be co-added accordingly. The number N of geolocation (pcd.glr) records that need to be co-added is determined by dividing the integration time by 1.5. The last of the N geolocation records is in the same egp record that has the measurement data. The other geolocation records can be found in the preceding egp records. If not all N geolocation records for a co-adding are available the data for the co-added geolocation record will be filled with NaN values
