Instrument Processing Streams

Gives the overall flow of the processing code per instrument and not step-by-step instructions as to how the data is processed. For step-by-step instructions, see the processing code itself.

1. Concatenate all ".A??" files into one ".aim" file using the ADPAA combine_aimms script or the linux command "cat".

   Example:  "combine_aimms file=12091440.A00" give combine file 12091440.aim

   Example: "cat 12091440.A00 12091440.A01 > 12091440.aim" give combine file "12091440.aim".

2. Convert the ".aim" file from step 1 into a file of the correct format using ADPAA command "convert_aimmstonasa file=*inputfile*.aim".

   Example: "convert_aimmstonasa file=12091440.aim" produces the file "97_12_09_14_40_07.aimms.realtime_usb.raw".

3. Convert file generated in step 2 into kml format using ADPAA command "convert2kml < *inputfile* > *outputfile*".

   Example: "convert2kml < 97_12_09_14_40_07.aimms.realtime_usb.raw > 97_12_09_14_40_07.aimms.realtime_usb.kml" produces the file "97_12_09_14_40_07.aimms.realtime_usb.kml".

4. The file produced in step 3 may now be loaded into Google Earth.
