Modifying FitReadRadarScan to store sky noise in RadarBeam structure rather than search noise #614

Closed egthomas closed 4 weeks ago

egthomas commented 1 month ago

This pull request addresses one issue recently raised in #570, where the fitted sky noise value is now used instead of the search.noise parameter to populate the noise fields in grid and map files. You can test this by comparing noise values in grid files for different radars (some of which calculate search noise differently or not at all).

I've also just updated the online documentation to more clearly state that the noise values recorded in grid and map files originate from the sky noise parameter.
