kyoto_load_dst.pro


Name: KYOTO_LOAD_DST Purpose: Queries the Kyoto servers for DST data and loads data into tplot format. Adapted from KYOTO_AE2TPLOT.PRO. Syntax: kyoto_load_dst [ ,TRANGE = TRANGE ] [ ,FILENAMES ] [ ,< and data keywords below > ] Keywords: TRANGE (In): Pass a time range a la TIME_STRING.PRO. FILENAMES (In): * PRESENTLY DISABLED * Pass user-defined file names (full paths to local data files). These will be read a la the Kyoto format, and the Kyoto server will not be queried. DSTDATA, DSTTIME (Out): Get 'dst' data, time basis in an array. no_server: set this keyword to use only locally available data files (i.e. don't connect to Kyoto server) Code: W.M.Feuerstein, 5/15/2008. Modifications: Changed file format of name (kyoto_dst_YYYY_MM.dat to kyoto_dst_YYYYMM.dat), changed "DST" references to "DST", updated doc'n, WMF, 4/17/2008. Saved new version under new name (old name was KYOTO_DST_LOAD), added DATATYPE kw, validate and loop on datatypes, hardwired /DOWNLOADONLY, up'd data kwd's, up'd doc'n, WMF, 5/15/2008. Tested that the software defaults to local data when ther internet is not available even with /DOWNLOADONLY (yes), added acknowledgement and warning banner, added 'ax' datatype, WMF, 5/19/2008. Changed name from KYOTO_DST2TPLOT.PRO to KYOTO_LOAD_DST.PRO, added VERBOSE kw, added acknowledgement to DLIMITS structure, updated print, and header acknowledgement, WMF, 7/23/08. Changed acknowledgment as per Andreas Keiling, WMF, 8/4/2008. YTITLE reflects whether Provisional or RT data, WMF, 8/12/2008. YTITLE now set by file data (not kw), WMF, 8/15/2008. Updated doc'n, WMF, 8/25/2008. Adding final data, no_server keyword, apply_time_clip keyword, fixed problem with trange not working, lphilpott oct-2011 Acknowledgment: The DST data are provided by the World Data Center for Geomagnetism, Kyoto, and are not for redistribution (http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/). Furthermore, we thank the geomagnetic observatories (Kakioka [JMA], Honolulu and San Juan [USGS], Hermanus [RSA], Alibag [IIG]), NiCT, INTERMAGNET, and many others for their cooperation to make the Dst index available. $LastChangedBy: $ $LastChangedDate: $ $LastChangedRevision: $ $URL $
