Routine Descriptions

PROCEDURE: avg_data_python_validate

PURPOSE:
   Generate test data for Python vs IDL validation tests for avg_data routine.
   

   Creates a file called avg_data_validate.tplot which should be uploaded into:
   https://github.com/spedas/test_data

   This file is used by pyspedas tests to confirm that IDL and python results are the same.

(See general/tools/python_validate/fac_matrix_make_python_validate.pro)

 Procedure:
  lmn_python_validate

 Purpose:
  Creates a savefile with tplot variables that contain lmn_matrix_make data.

  The savefile can used to compare the results of IDL lmn_matrix_make.pro
  to the results of the similar python function in pyspedas.

 Procedure:
  omni_solarwind_python_validate

 Purpose:
  Create a savefile with OMNI solar wind variables.
  The savefile can be loaded into Python using PySPEDAS to verify that the Python results match the IDL results.

 NAME:
    SPINMODEL_PYTHON_TEST.PRO

 PURPOSE:
   Load several spin models and export them as CDFs for comparison with Python results

 CATEGORY:
   TDAS 

 CALLING SEQUENCE:
   spinmodel_python_test

  INPUTS:
    probe:             One value from 'a b c d e'
    trange:            Time range specified as a 2-element string array
    correction_level:  An integer, 0 1 or 2, denoting the level of eclipse corrections to use
    cdf_filename:      The name of the output CDF.   This file can be passed to the themis.state.spinmodel.validate_model routine
                       to perform the python side of the test.
  OUTPUTS:
    A CDF file containing the probe, time range, and correction level used, a dump of the spinmodel attributes, and some interpolation 
    test data to be reproduced in pyspedas.

  KEYWORDS:
    None.

  PROCEDURE:
    

  EXAMPLE:
     spinmodel_python_test, probe='a',trange=['2008-03-23','2008-04-23'],correction_level=2,cdf_filename='tha_30day_corr2.cdf'

PROCEDURE: wav_data_validate

PURPOSE:
   Generate test data for Python vs IDL validation tests for the wav_data routine.


   Creates the following savefiles:
        wav_data_resample_test.tplot
        sin_wav_wv_pol_perp.tplot
        wav_data_cross_test.tplot
        sin_wav_wv_pol_perp.tplot

   These files should be uploaded into:
     https://github.com/spedas/test_data/analysis_tools

   The savefiles are used by pyspedas tests to confirm that IDL and python results are the same.
