Processing Solar Data (Basic)

UPM Method

Solar data is typically processed using udpPacketManager, to produce a Stokes IV output, downsampled by a factor of 256 to 1.3ms, using a set of automated scripts.

The process_data.sh script can be set to process data on a specific path, or will automatically find the newest directory of observations, and process any Solar observations.

The commands needed to setup processing can be found in the directory below.
