process_raw

Purpose

Extracts analog data from SEA M300 data system file (*.sea) and creates the *.analog.raw file. Extracts Cloud Imaging Probes (CIP) housekeeping information from SEA M300 data system file(*.sea).

Required Input File

*.sea

Output File

*.analog.raw

*.housekeeping.cip.raw

Example Syntax

Output File

*.physical.raw

convert_physical

Purpose

Uses total temperature, static pressure and dynamic pressure to correct for dynamic effect on the total temperature measurement to calculate air temperature.

Required Input File

*.physical.*

Output File

*.basic.raw

winds_file

Purpose

Output File

*.winds.raw*
