CSPP Geo GRB Version 1.0.18 Release
13 Dec 2018
The Version 1.0.18 patch includes the following changes:
- Bug fix to correctly handle a GRB stream error condition involving out-of-order data packets. The error condition was only observed rarely, but previously resulted in an ingestor restart and an exception in the log.
- Bug fix to minimize the effect of lost packets on products in-progress. The ingestor now recovers the remainder of a product if possible after a missing packet is encountered, instead of closing off the product.
- Minor bug fix for an issue that caused the ingestor to try to purge non-existent temporary files, resulting in an error message in the logs
- All generated files other than products are now automatically purged. Refer to Section 8.6 for more information.
- Workaround for a compression issue affecting SUVI data distributed via GRB; resolves incorrect values in the SUVI RAD variable.
- Fixes for various issues in FITS files created from SUVI NetCDF-4 products.
- Bug fix affecting the EXIS X-RAY product: resolves incorrect size specification for two variables that resulted in incorrect values in subsequent variables.
The v1.0.18 patch is a cumulative patch and can be applied to any previous software version in the v1.0 series.
The test data package includes GOES-16 data from all instruments acquired from the antenna at the UW-Madison Space Science and Engineering Center, as well as a data feeder test script. The test script frames the packets into CADUs, then sends the data as UDP datagrams to the ports monitored by the CSPP Geo GRB software, simulating a GRB data stream as delivered by a demodulator.
For information on installing, configuring and operating the software, refer to the CSPP Geo GRB Software Users' Guide.
