OBPG_OCTS

This document describes the OBPG_OCTS data files. This document is sub-divided into three sections: OBPG_OCTS level 1, OBPG_OCTS level 2 and OBPG_OCTS level 3 respectively. All the files are pure HDF4 files.

level1

The following table summarizes the information collected for all the files:

File type File size(avg.) Datafield Dim. Range CF-compliant information Other special issues
HDF4 50MB 2D, 3D All the data fields and geo fields do have 'long_name' attribute. Files do not provide latitude and longitude information for data fields

level2

The following table summarizes the information collected for all the files:

File type File size(avg.) Datafield Dim. Range CF-compliant information Other special issues
Pure HDF4 23MB 2D 1. All the data fields and geo fields have ‘units’ and ‘long_name’ attribute. Data fields also have ‘slope’ and ‘intercept’ attribute; 2. 'units' attribute for latitude and longitude does not follow CF conventions; 3. Name for fillvalue attribute does not follow CF conventions Interpolation is needed to calculate latitude or longitude.

level3

The following table summarizes the information collected for all the files:

File type File size(avg.) Datafield Dim. Range CF-compliant information
Pure HDF4 10MB 2D 1. Data fields have ‘units’, ‘slope’ and ‘intercept’ attributes; 2. There are fill values inside the data but there is neither a 'Fill_Value' attribute nor a 'missing value' attribute
