GOESSTRUCT_TO_CDFSTRUCT

[Next Routine] [List of Routines]
 Function:    
         GOESstruct_to_cdfstruct
         
 Purpose:
         Converts an IDL structure returned from a GOES netCDF file 
         into an IDL structure that can be passed to cdf_info_to_tplot
         
 Input:
         netCDFi: GOES IDL structure from ncdf_load_vars
         
 Output: 
         IDL structure that follows the SPDF CDF standard
         (at least enough so to be read by cdf_info_to_tplot)

GOES_COMBINE_TDATA

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
 Procedure:    goes_combine_tdata

 Purpose:
     The procedures in this library combine multi-dimensional GOES tplot variables 
     and ensure the combined tplot variables contain the standard data attributes structure
     required for TDAS/SPEDAS data processing and analysis
     
     For instance, GOES magnetometer data can be loaded as 'he', 'hn', 'hp', 
     goes_combine_mag_data will find and combine these into a single 'g[8-15]_h_enp' variable, with
     the coordinates set to 'ENP' and units set to 'nT' in the data attributes structure
     
     
 Notes:
     If the get_support_data keyword isn't set, these routines will delete the tplot variables
     corresponding to the support data (i.e., variables ending in *_NUM_PTS and *_QUAL_FLAG).
     
     If the user loads support data for one type of particle data (i.e., electrons) and then 
     loads a different type of data without support data, the initial support data may be removed
     by these routines (due to the globbing). 
     
     For the instruments with multiple detectors:
         EPEAD: E, W detectors are combined into a single tplot variable with the E-component 
            in the first column of the Y component [*,0] and the W-component in the second
            column of the Y component [*,1]
         MAG(E/P)D: The 9-telescopes are combined into a single tplot variable with each detector 
            in the (detector-1) column of the Y-component; note that this is also in order of 
            increasing energy

GOES_LOAD_CRIB_SHEET

[Previous Routine] [Next Routine] [List of Routines]
 Procedure:
         goes_load_crib_sheet
         
 Purpose:
         Example of loading GOES data using the command line
              
        
 Notes:
     The GOES routines have their own configuration routines,
     since the data products are in a different location than the
     THEMIS products.  goes_init will create a reasonable default
     configuration and save it in a file. goes_read_config and
     goes_write_config let you customize !goes in case you 
     are at SSL and don't need HTTP downloads, or if you have
     an alternate source for GOES products (e.g. a local mirror)
