Significance of the File
contains various two- or three-dimensional data-records in a standard data format (universal direct access data format)
File-Contents (in Catchwords)
The location of the data points in space is not given in this file. The precise location of each data point is obtained from the information contained in a related topography file (bathymetry and grid information). From this information the precise location (x,y,z) can be calculated. For every data-set each component is stored as a record. A data set consists of physical data from a 2D- or 3D-space or a profile which is either a synoptic data set (at all nodes of the data-space the result is valid for the same date), a synthetic data set (e.g. maximum value at ech node for a specific period of time) or a time-series data set (for each node of the data-space the respective data are stored as a time-serie)
the following quantities can be stored
- scalars, vectors and/or tensors
- two-dimensional or three-dimensional vectors and/or tensors
- time-independent and time-dependent data elementary forms of data storage
- time-series data
- synoptic data
- synthetic data
FORTRAN data types: INTEGER, REAL, COMPLEX und DOUBLE PRECISION
