NADC_TOOLS homepage

This page contains links, documentation, and program examples of my work for the Netherlands Sciamachy Data Center (NL-SCIA-DC).

NL-SCIA-DC documentation:

+	Installation Guide [PDF] describes how to install NADC_TOOLS on a Unix platform
+	ChangeLog(outdated) [PDF], or the SubversionLog [HTML], which describes bugfixes and new features added in the latest release
+	User Guide [PDF] describes the GOME and Sciamachy data extractors from the NADC_TOOLS package
+	Reference Guide (C) [PDF] describes the NADC_TOOLS procedures and functions written in ANSI-C
+	Reference Guide (IDL) [HTML] describes the NADC_TOOLS procedures and functions written in IDL

NL-SCIA-DC source-code:

+	active development of nadc_tools is moved to gitHub: 2.0.0
+	stable release of nadc_tools (07-Oct-2013): 1.4.0-post2 No further development, only bug fixes discovered in v2 will be backported to v1.4

NL-SCIA-DC auxiliary datasets:

Several calibration options of the program scia_nl1 can be applied using auxiliary datasets, instead of the values stored in the level 1b product. The required datasets should be saved in the directory DATADIR (defined in file: config/Rules_NADC.mk), or in the current working directory.

+	Memcorr.h5: memory correction table (channel 1--5) [calibration option: "1m+"]
+	NLcorr.h5: non-linearity correction table (channel 6--8) [calibration option: "1l+"]
+	Straylight.h5: Matrix required for the Straylight correction calculation [calibration option: "4+"], version 1.2.0-post16 and higher.
+	Straylight_ch2.h5: Matrix required for the Straylight correction calculation (channel 2, only) [calibration option: "4+"].
+	nadc_clusDef: State-Cluster definition database, used by scia_nl0, version 2.1 and higher.
