SCM Level 2 Data Processing History

This web page contains significant dates for changes in the software and mastercdfs that are used to create THEMIS Level 2 data files for the SCM (Search Coil Magnetometer) data. Dates for reprocessing of SCM L2 files are included.

Processing  Comments
Date    
2010-05-07:  Initial processing.
2010-05-17:  Reprocessed THB (post 24-Jul-2009), THC (post 13-apr-2010) L2 files in response to filled data gaps from L0/L1 processing.
2010-07-22:  Reprocessed full mission for EFI, ESA, FGM, FIT, MOM, and SCM; changed all L2 time formats to f12.8 (from e13.6, e19.12, and f12.2 in various files) and added solarwind mode flags to ESA and MOM files. Also implemented new calibration data for FGM.
2011-01-07:  Reprocessed full mission for ESA, FBK, FGM, FFT, FIT, MOM, SCM, and SST; to correct for data gaps at day boundaries caused by time clipping in load routines.
2014-02-07:  Reprocessed all probes, full mission SCM data to remove small (< 0.20 second) data gaps in SCW burst data.
2015-07-10:  Reprocessed L2 data for all probes, for files created after 2014-01-01/00:00, to allow for wave burst intervals that are less than two spin periods long.
2019-11-15:  Reprocessed All probe L2 files for THEMIS-A:Oct 6-12 2019;Oct 25-29 2019, THEMIS-D:Oct 26-27 2019,THEMIS-E:Oct 26-28 2019;June 21-22 2012, all but 2012 files due to power outage of October 2019.
