  • Method Details

    • isSensorDataUsable

      public boolean isSensorDataUsable()
      Description copied from interface: DataRecord
      Determines if the sensor data is usable based on quality flags.

    • getSensorData

      public short[] getSensorData()
      Description copied from interface: DataRecord
      Gets the sensor data values as uncalibrated counts.

    • isCalibrationUsable

      public boolean isCalibrationUsable()
      Description copied from interface: DataRecord
      Determines if the calibration data is usable based on quality flags.

    • getCalibration

      public float[] getCalibration()
      Gets calibration data as tuplets of [a0, a1, a2] coefficients for each channel. Radiance in mW/(m^2 sr cm^-1) may be computed from count value using the equation: radiance = a0 + a1*count + a2*count^2.

    • isNavigationUsable

      public boolean isNavigationUsable()
      Description copied from interface: DataRecord
      Determines if the navigation data is usable based on quality flags.

    • getNavigation

      public float[] getNavigation()
      Gets navigation data as tuplets of [solar zenith, satellite zenith, relative azimuth, latitude, longitude] for each pixel.

    • getData

      public terrenus.instrument.InstrumentData getData()
      Description copied from interface: DataRecord
      Gets the calibrated and earth located sensor data.
