King-Air Data Summary - February 16, 1996

MEMO TO:   Charlie Knight

 FROM:          Al Cooper

 SUBJECT:    Aircraft data files on the NCAR MSS 

---

SCMS data files from Wyoming (N2UW) and from METEO-France (Merlin) have now been transferred to the NCAR Mass Store System. To date, the only files there from the Merlin are the 1-s values. For N2UW, the raw tapes as well as the processed data files are stored. As you know, there is also an NCAR C130 data set on the MSS as well. The C-130 and Merlin data sets are in NETCDF format; the Wyoming processed data are in GENPRO format, with the data header and data values stored in separate files.

All file names should be preceded by /COOPERW/SCMS/2UW for Wyoming files and /COOPER/SCMS/MERLIN for METEO-France files. E.G., the raw-data file for flight 5 of 2UW is stored as /COOPERW/SCMS/2UW/R05.

The Wyoming files are saved as COS-blocked files, and TR=BI must be specified to retrieve them as binary files via MIGS. The Merlin files are saved as transparent-format files, so no translation is needed.
