into existing netCDF files that were apparently only
the Goes files.



67: DATA/none Fri 28-Jul-1995 17:04:44 GMT Merged local data storage from station 3 into neCDF files for July 24-26

into existing netCDF files.  Matt had previously
merged the local data storage into these ppf files. 

68: DATA/none Sat 29-Jul-1995 15:03:05 GMT Local data storage files: Status of Offload from station, translation to ppf and merging
Status of Local data storage from EVE's

Created PPF and verified local data storage files for the stations.
The PPF data for these files is in /data/ppf/eve_local.

MOST RECENT UPDATE: 950806 (jwm)

See additional comments in the next log entry file concerning local data
storage.

NOTE: (later revisions per jwm)
The PPF/Merge column shown below was added to indicate the ongoing status of
the creation of eve_local packet files.
	P	denotes the local files have been translated into PPF
		and placed in the /data/ppf/eve_local directory.
	M	denotes that these local ppf files were merged with
		the principal ppf directory file (in /data/ppf).
		That file is generated via the GOES ingest in
		real-time using the tcp_ppf program link with Boulder.
		On a nightly basis, the GOES file is updated via a
		merge with the /data/ppf/eve_rf files.
	V	denotes that the resulting merged file created with
		/rdss/pam/bin/merge_local was examined and compared
		with the primary ppf file (using both daystat and
		robot) and the 'best' file was subsequently copied
		back into the primary /data/ppf directory.
	C	denotes that the /data/ppf files have been converted
		again into the netCDF files on
		$ASTER/projects/SCMS95/results/covar.

70: DATA/none Sat 29-Jul-1995 22:10:01 GMT Created netCDF data files for July 19, 21-27

into existing netCDF files.  These files include all of the
local storage data down-loaded to date.


76: DATA/none Tue 01-Aug-1995 13:22:45 GMT Translation from pam ppf files to netCDF files
The PAM netCDF files are generated by executing the command:

/parrot/home/burghart/pam2netCDF/pam2netCDF /rdss/pam/eve/config/Master_Index 
file.ppf

where file.ppf is the ppf file in either /data/ppf, /data/ppf/eve_rf, or
/data/ppf/eve_local.

I have placed this into my (and aster's) .cshrc file as an alias 
called ppf2netCDF, used by executing

ppf2netCDF file.ppf

This command must be executed in the netCDF directory,
$ASTER/projects/SCMS95/results/covar for this project.  It appears 
necessary to be aster when executing this command.


142: DATA/none Fri 27-Oct-1995 19:01:15 GMT ppf data files converted to netCDF
Moved the existing pam netCDF files in 
/net/sssf1/aster/projects/SCMS95/results/covar to an `old' subdirectory
and created new netCDF files from the merged ppf files in 
/net/ppf.
