So we have the logger_type
and number_of_booms
attribute in the config files, which define the logger box (CR1000
/CR1000X
) and number of boom levels (1
/2
).
These can either be defined at the beginning of the config file to be applied to all files, or can be defined to individual files if there has been a switch in logger box or mast type.
What other attributes would you suggest in the config file, or elsewhere?
Thanks for looking into this!
Something like station_type
that would be tripod
or mast
.
It describes whether the station is attached to the underlying ice and whether it lower as the ice is melting.
It is independent of the number of levels (KAN_U and EGP are both 1 level mast atm).
Good idea. This can easily be added to the config files. I guess this is needed for deriving snow height, ice surface height and surface height.
So then we will have these attributes to describe each station:
logger_type
: CR1000
or CR1000X
number_of_booms
: 1
or 2
bedrock
: true
or false
station_type
: tripod
or mast

There are filters and specific processing linked to the station type. Yet there is attribute documenting it.
Could we have an attribute defining station type in the config files?
It should be an attribute that either applied to all logger files (if defined at the begining of the config file) or can be redifined/overwritten for specific logger files (for cases like EGP and KAN_U that switched from a tripod to a mast type).
