BEAT-II Record: GOSAT_FTS_L1b_band3s

Fields

The table below gives an overview of possible fields that can be returned from an ingestion of GOSAT_FTS_L1b_band3s 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).

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 nametypedescription
datastringSince this record type is not the default type of data that will be ingested for a GOSAT_FTS_L1b product, you will have to provide a filter option data=band3s to get this type of record.
includestringProvide 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.
excludestringProvide 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_mintime*Only include elements for which the value is greater than or equal to the provided filter option value
time_maxtime*Only include elements for which the value is less than or equal to the provided filter option value
timetime*Only include elements that match the list of given filter option values
latitude_mindoubleOnly include elements for which the value is greater than or equal to the provided filter option value
latitude_maxdoubleOnly include elements for which the value is less than or equal to the provided filter option value
latitudedoubleOnly include elements that match the list of given filter option values
longitude_mindoubleOnly include elements for which the value is greater than or equal to the provided filter option value
longitude_maxdoubleOnly include elements for which the value is less than or equal to the provided filter option value
longitudedoubleOnly include elements that match the list of given filter option values
wavenumber_mindoubleOnly include data where the wavenumber is greater then or equal to the value provided (in cm^-1)
wavenumber_maxdoubleOnly include data where the wavenumber is less than or equal to the value provided (in cm^-1)

* 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.

field namemapping description
time path/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/Time[]
descriptionThe record with year/month/day/hour/min/sec values is converted to a single double value givingthe amount of seconds since 2000-01-01 00:00:00
latitude path/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/geometricInfo/centerLat[]
longitude path/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/geometricInfo/centerLon[]
spectral_radiance path/Spectrum/SWIR/band3/obsWavelength[,1,,]
descriptionThe radiance returned is the complex norm of the complex value that is stored in the product. In other words, what is returned is sqrt(real * real + imag * imag).
spectral_radiance_unit descriptionWill be set to "V/cm^-1"
wavenumber path/exposureAttribute/pointAttribute/RadiometricCorrectionInfo/spectrumObsWavelengthRange_SWIR
descriptionThe wavenumbers are calculated by evaluating the function a.x + b for x = 0 .. N-1 with a,b the wavelength range parameters in the product
wavenumber_unit descriptionWill be set to "cm^-1"
