8. Output Data Format
8.1. Data file type 1
1) Record unit
Write down a file to any folder in a computer in each setting cycle (e.g. 60 sec.)
It is possible to set up a log folder.
2) Record file name
Output files extension: csv
Form: DATE_TIME_DATAKIND.csv (YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_xx.csv).
e.g.) Output the Rainfall strength “01/10/2012 9:37:26” → "20121001_093726_Rain.csv".
Output data types are shown below:
Rain: Rainfall intensity [mm/h]
Zhh: Reflective intensity (Horizontal) [dBZ]
Zvv: Reflective intensity (Vertical) [dBZ]
V: Doppler velocity [m/s]
Zdr: Radar reflection factor difference [dB]
Kdp: Propagation phase difference rate of change [deg/km]
3) Data format
CSV format:
Record date (date of DPU)
Latitude [deg] (+:N, -:S)
Longitude [deg] (+:E, -:W)
The total number of sweeps (MAX 8192)
Data mark of the direction of distance (MAX 1028)
Resolution of the direction of distance [m]
Azimuth direction (θ) [deg]
(The angle of azimuth for every sweep)
Elevation direction (θ) [deg]
(The angle of elevation for every sweep)
Range direction (r) [BIN]
Data mark of the distance direction +7
