Add new CCT 13 entry for radio occultation data from non-satellites #168

Closed jbathegit closed 3 months ago

jbathegit commented 8 months ago

Initial request

In CCT 13, there is already an entry 50 for radio occultation sounding under Data Category 3 (=Vertical soundings (satellite)). However, radio occultation data profiles can also be observed from non-satellite platforms, including from aircraft or from high-altitude balloons. To that end, we propose a similar entry under Data Category 2 (=Vertical soundings (other than satellite)).

Amendment details

New entry in CCT 13:

Data Category Data Category name International Subcategory International Subcategory name
2 Vertical soundings (other than satellite) 50 Radio occultation sounding
