BEAT-II Record: OMI_L3_OMTO3e

Fields

The table below gives an overview of possible fields that can be returned from an ingestion of OMI_L3_OMTO3e 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).

typestring includedreference to the type of data in this record
timedouble[main]includedThe time of the data fields (in seconds since 2000-01-01 00:00:00)

cloud_fraction_griddouble[main, latitude, longitude]excludedCloud fraction field

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
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

* 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.
