GHRSST-PP central error log system.<br />

2.3.3 Processing at SOC<br />

Figure 3-10 shows the part of the <strong>Medspiration</strong> processing system located at SOC.<br />

There are two main tasks to be performed, handling the ingest of the AATSR L2 global<br />

data, and extracting the diagnostic data set (DDS) granules of data from the main<br />

<strong>Medspiration</strong> archive at IFREMER.<br />

AATSR Ingestion<br />

<strong>Medspiration</strong> has a responsibility to extract the DDS granules from the AATSR for the<br />

whole world. This is in contrast with all the other data in <strong>Medspiration</strong> which cover<br />

European and Atlantic waters only. For this reason, and also to expedite AATSR data<br />

exchange between <strong>Medspiration</strong> and the ESRIN server, SOC will operate a mirroring<br />

function for AATSR data. From the AATSR data downloaded from ESRIN in Envisat<br />

format, the global DDS sites will be extracted and converted to netCDF format. Also the<br />

full data coverage of the EURDAC area will be extracted to provide the L2 input to the<br />

ingestion module at CMS. To avoid duplication of effort, the pixel location, viewing angle<br />

and sun angle information that is provided at a few tie points will be interpolated and<br />

attached to each pixel before transmission to CMS.<br />

Diagnostic data set generation at SOC<br />

The DDS granule generation for all sensors other than AATSR extends only to the<br />

European area DDS sites. As soon as data are entered into the IFREMER server the<br />

DDS granules will be extracted and MMR records sent to GHRSST-PP. Since the<br />

GHRSST-PP DDS is a distributed dataset, relying on the RDACs to house the data, it is<br />

implicit in the provision of DDS granules to GHRSST-PP that <strong>Medspiration</strong> should<br />

establish a DDS archive for the European DDS sites. This will be located at SOC.<br />

Associated with the DDS archive is an obligation of dissemination, leading to a<br />

requirement to serve the DDS data freely to external users.<br />
