|
|---|---|---|
scan_subindex |
description |
the scanline and pixel dimensions are collapsed into a temporal dimension; the index of the pixel within the scanline is computed as the index on the temporal dimension modulo the number of scanlines |
datetime_start |
path |
/PRODUCT/time, /PRODUCT/delta_time[] |
description |
time converted from milliseconds since a reference time (given as seconds since 2010-01-01) to seconds since 2010-01-01 (using 86400 seconds per day); the time associated with a scanline is repeated for each pixel in the scanline |
|
datetime_length |
path |
/@time_coverage_resolution |
description |
the measurement length is parsed assuming the ISO 8601 ‘PT%(interval_seconds)fS’ format |
