SCIAMACHY Auxiliary Data
Auxiliary data
The SCIAMACHY consolidated datasets result from reprocessing activities where the best available on-ground and in-flight auxiliary information was adopted.
The auxiliary data files used to produce the consolidated datasets are available to download:
Level 1b
Auxiliary Data Files for Level 1b v10 processing:
- Level 1 key data file (static auxiliary file)

Starting from SCIAMACHY Level 1 processing baseline version 8, the radiometric degradation and etalon corrections are applied via monitoring factors (m-factors) files to the Level 0-1b processing step and enclosed into the Level 1b products. With previous baseline versions, the m-factor correction was performed in the Level 1b-c processing step during the generation of Level 2 products.
This additional calibration step is no longer necessary for users when using the data.
Level 2
Auxiliary Data Files for Level 2 SGP v7.1 processing:
The SCIAMACHY Level 2 processing baseline version 7.1 adopts an improved initialization file (SCI_IN__AX) implementing some new and changed parameters. The auxiliary file is now integrated into the processor itself (XML format) and is not distributed separately from the processor.
