NetCDF velocimeters format

This page provides an overview of the NetCDF format of benchmark dataset for instruments that measure velocities at a point in space e.g., acoustic-Doppler velocimeters and travel-time velocimeters (MAVS).

Benchmark datasets: Velocity point-measurements

ATOMIX provides several benchmark datasets consisting of four processing levels.

1. Raw timeseries
   • full resolution data in physical units
2. Quality-controlled and segmented timeseries
   • Quality-controlled and despiked velocities from level 1
   • Detrended and subdivided further in individual segments.
3. Spectra
   • raw and cleaned (if applicable) spectra
4. Dissipation [math]\displaystyle{ \varepsilon }[/math] estimates
   • dissipation estimates and corresponding quality parameter as time series
