Decide how to pass flight model parameters #21

Open eleanorfrajka opened 3 weeks ago

These are currently separated from individual basestation files in the sg_cal output from convertOG1.extract_variables(). This returns any variable from the original basestation p015XXXX_YYYYMMDD.nc file which starts with sg_cal and includes things like hd_a and volmax and mass which would be needed to recalculate flight models.

First check whether over the course of a mission, any of the parameters change. If they do, then the variables (e.g., 'hd_a') will need to be stored as a variable of length 'N_MEASUREMENTS'. Otherwise, they can be stored as a single variable (no dimension) per mission.
