MORSE L1C Pre-processors | |

Currently there are four such pre-processors, all written in IDL
IASI_L1C | Convert IASI L1B .nat data (EUMETSAT format) |
MIPAS_L1C | Convert L1B data (ESA format) |
HIROS_L1C | Convert HIROS L1B data (netCDF) |
HSDI_L1C | Convert HSDI L1B data (netCDF) |
These are written in IDL rather than FORTRAN since IDL can more simply handle the binary input files. I will eventually replace these with
Python programs.
IASI_L1C
The program can be run just using the IASI .nat file as input, but also
allows for two different types of colocated IASI
L2 products (RAL and Eumetsat) to be used to provide additional information,
in which case the output is further restricted to the L2 locations.
MIPAS_L1C
The IDL procedure reads
a MIPAS L1B file and a
list of microwindows,
apodises the
spectra and extracts the microwindows writing them as a
MIPAS L1C file.
Notes
Argument Type I/O Description
Mandatory
String I
Name of MIPAS L1B input file
Optional
String I
Name of L1C output file (input for MORSE)[1]
String I
Microwindow list file [2]
HIROS_L1C
The IDL procedure converts
a HIROS L1B file to a MORSE
L1C file.
HSDI_L1C
The IDL procedure converts
an HSDI L1B file to a MORSE
L1C file.
