Quality Information Document

The original, non-ARCO version of this dataset, as published by the data provider.

Native dataset

History collection

An ARCO version of this dataset as multiple datacubes, one per variable, with a small chunk size in the `longitude` and `latitude` dimensions.

Note that the link (`href`) associated to this asset is the base directory
of this dataset, but it cannot be accessed directly. Data files can be found
under _base/VAR/CHtime.CHelev.CHlon.CHlat.sqlite_, where
_base_ is the base directory, _VAR_ is the variable name (e.g. _TEMP_), and 
_CHx_ is the chunk index in the _x_ dimension (empty chunks do not exist). To determine the chunk index
in each dimension, check out the `chunkType`, `chunkRefCoord`, `chunkLen` and other `chunk*`
attributes of the corresponding dimension under `viewDims`.

Geo-chunked SQLite data cubes, one per variable

An ARCO version of this dataset as multiple datacubes, one per variable and platform.

Note that the link (`href`) associated to this asset is the base directory
of this dataset, but it cannot be accessed directly. Data files can be found
under _base/PID/VAR/CHtime.CHelev.CHlon.CHlat.sqlite_, where
_base_ is the base directory, _PID_ is the platform identifier, _VAR_ is the variable name (e.g. _TEMP_), and 
_CHx_ is the chunk index in the _x_ dimension (empty chunks do not exist). To determine the chunk index
in each dimension, check out the `chunkType`, `chunkRefCoord`, `chunkLen` and other `chunk*`
attributes of the corresponding dimension under `viewDims`.

SQLite data cubes, one per variable and platform

A JSON file describing each platform in this dataset.

Platform index

An ARCO version of this dataset as multiple datacubes, one per variable, with a small chunk size in the `time` dimension.

Note that the link (`href`) associated to this asset is the base directory
of this dataset, but it cannot be accessed directly. Data files can be found
under _base/VAR/CHtime.CHelev.CHlon.CHlat.sqlite_, where
_base_ is the base directory, _VAR_ is the variable name (e.g. _TEMP_), and 
_CHx_ is the chunk index in the _x_ dimension (empty chunks do not exist). To determine the chunk index
in each dimension, check out the `chunkType`, `chunkRefCoord`, `chunkLen` and other `chunk*`
attributes of the corresponding dimension under `viewDims`.
