public class NOAA1bV1Reader
extends NOAA1bReader

A NOAA 1b version 1 reader is a NOAA 1b reader that reads NOAA 1b format NOAA-A through -J GAC/LAC/HRPT data files available from the NOAA/NESDIS Satellite Active Archive. These files are characterized by an optional 122 byte Terabit Memory (TBM) header followed by data header and records of 10688/14800/20928 bytes for 8/10/16-bit LAC or 2496/3220/4540 bytes for 8/10/16-bit GAC.

Note that currently, channel 3, 4, and 5 non-linear corrections are applied to NOAA-14 data only. Also, conversion from radiance to brightness temperatures uses a single central wavenumber for the range 270-310 K for all satellites. The calibration in this implementation may be updated at a later date as required. For more accurate calibration results, use NOAA-KLM data stored in NOAA 1b version 2 format datasets.

Constructor Details

NOAA1bV1Reader

public NOAA1bV1Reader(String file)
               throws IOException

Constructs a NOAA 1b version 1 reader from the specified file.

Parameters:

file - the file name to read.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurred reading the file data.

Method Details

getDataFormat

public String getDataFormat()

Gets the data format description.

Specified by:

getDataFormat in class EarthDataReader

getVariableNames

protected String[] getVariableNames()

Description copied from class: NOAA1bReader

Gets the variable names in this dataset.

Specified by:

getVariableNames in class NOAA1bReader

getArchiveFlag

protected boolean getArchiveFlag()
                          throws IOException

Checks for an archive header and returns true if so. This method reads the TBM header which contains mostly printable ASCII characters, except in a few locations.

Specified by:

getArchiveFlag in class NOAA1bReader

Throws:

IOException

checkFormat

protected void checkFormat()
                    throws IOException

Description copied from class: NOAA1bReader

Checks the dataset format and throws an error if it is incompatible with this reader.

Specified by:

checkFormat in class NOAA1bReader

Throws:

IOException

getArchiveHeader

public NOAA1bReader.ArchiveHeader getArchiveHeader()
                                            throws IOException

Description copied from class: NOAA1bReader

Gets the archive header if it exists.

Specified by:

getArchiveHeader in class NOAA1bReader

Returns:

the archive header.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurred reading the file data.

getDataHeader

public NOAA1bReader.DataHeader getDataHeader()
                                      throws IOException

Description copied from class: NOAA1bReader

Gets the data header.

Specified by:

getDataHeader in class NOAA1bReader

Returns:

the data header.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurred reading the file data.

isNavigationUsable

protected boolean isNavigationUsable(int record,
 ByteBuffer buffer)
                              throws IOException

Description copied from class: NOAA1bReader

Gets the navigation data usability flag. This method is used to determine if navigation data is usable for a certain scan line without reading all the scan line data.

Specified by:

isNavigationUsable in class NOAA1bReader

Parameters:

record - the record to check for navigation (note this is not the same as the line number used in the scan line constructor).

buffer - the buffer to use for reading data.

Returns:

true if the line has usable navigation data, or false if not.

Throws:

IOException

getScanLine

public NOAA1bReader.ScanLine getScanLine(int line,
 int start,
 int count)
                                  throws IOException

Description copied from class: NOAA1bReader

Gets the scan line at the specified index.

Specified by:

getScanLine in class NOAA1bReader

Parameters:

line - the scan line index in the range [0..lines-1].

start - the starting sensor data sample.

count - the total number of sensor data samples. If the count is 0, no sensor data is read.

Returns:

the requested scan line.

Throws:

IOException - if an error occurred reading the file data or the scan line is marked as missing.
