 Low Resolution SCC L1 Products
 ==============================
 .. warning::
   This section is still under development.
 Introduction
 ------------
 The Single Calculus Chain (SCC) is the standard EARLINET tool to perform
 automatic and quality nchecked analysis of raw lidar data. It is
 composed by three different modules:
 -  ELPP (EARLINET Lidar Pre-Processor)
 -  ELDA (EARLINET Lidar Data Analizer)
 -  ELDEC (EARLINET Lidar DEpolarization Calibrator)
 Whenever an input file containing raw lidar data has been submitted to
 the SCC ELPP is automatically ran on it. The ELPP module pre-processes
 the raw data performing all the corrections and data handling needed
 before the optical retrieval algorithms can be applied by ELDA module.
 The ELPP output files contain pre-processed range corrected signals
 corrected for instrumental effects as well as atmospheric molecular
 parameters calculated from standard model or radiosounding. Typically,
 the vertical and temporal resolutions of the pre-processed signals
 included in these files is lower than the raw vertical and temporal
 resolution as in general time/vertical integration is performed by ELPP
 to increase the SNR and allow the calculation of optical products with a
 reduced uncertainties. As a consequence the ELPP output files are called
 Low Resolution SCC L1 Products. Another SCC module (HiRELPP – High
 Resolution EARLINET Lidar Pre-Processor) currently under development
 will produce High Resolution SCC L1 Products in which both time and
 vertical resolution are kept as higher as possible.
 This document provides a detailed description about the structure and
 the format of Low Resolution SCC L1 Product as produced by the SCC v4.0.
 Low Resolution SCC L1 Product: File format
 ------------------------------------------
 The Low Resolution SCC L1 Products are files in Network Common Data Form
 (NetCDF) which is a well known self-describing, machine-independent data
 format that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented
 scientific data. For more information about NetCDF format:
 http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/.
 The NetCDF is a binary format that allows the definition of
 multi-dimensional variables of several types (integers, double,
 character, etc). For each variable it is possible to define one or more
 attributes where to specify variable properties like units, long name,
 description, etc.
 It is possible to define global attributes which are not related to a
 specific variable but to the whole file.
 A NetCDF file is composed by four different section:
 dimensions
    this section contains all the dimensions used in the definition of
    all the variables included in the NetCDF file
 variables
    this section contains all the variables stored in the NetCDF file.
    Each variable is defined as a multi-dimensional array of a specific
    type and with all the dimensions defined in the dimensions section
 global attributes
    this section lists all the attributes referring to the whole file. As
    the variable the attributes (global or the one attached to a specific
    variable) can be of different type
 data
    in this section the data contained in each variable defined in
    variable section is stored. Attribute values (both global or related
    to a specific variable) are not reported in data section but directly
    in variable or global attribute sections.
 Each Low Resolution SCC L1 Product correspond to a single emission
 wavelength. For example it is possible to find in the same file the
 elastic and the Raman channel pre-processed time-series corresponding to
 the same emission wavelength (but to a different detection wavelengths)
 but not two elastic time-series referring to different emission
 wavelengths.
 Low Resolution SCC L1 Product Format: dimensions
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 The following dimensions are defined in the Low Resolution SCC L1
 Product:
 -  time
 -  points
 -  channels
 -  scan\_angles
 The dimension *time* specifies the number of RCS (for each channel)
 composing all the pre-processed time-series reported in the file.
 The dimension *points* represents the number of rangebins characterizing
 the pre-processed RCS. In case RCSs corresponding to different channels
 are characterized by different rangebins the dimension time is to the
 the maximum value of rangebins.
 The dimension *channels* indicates the number channels at which the RCS
 time-series included in the file refer to.
 The dimension *scan\_angles* takes into account how many zenith scan
 angles have been used to measure the RCS time-series reported into the
 file
 Low Resolution SCC L1 Product Format: variables
 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 In this section all the possible Low Resolution SCC L1 Product variables
 are reported. There are some variables that are mandatory and have to be
 present in all the Low Resolution SCC L1 Product files while there are
 others that have to be present only in specific cases.

     :Location: Included in all the Low Resolution SCC L1 Product files
                corresponding to elastic only retrieval and for which an lidar ratio
                profile file has been submitted by the data originator.
     The name of the lidar ratio file containing the profile of
     particle lidar ratio values to use as input in the elastic only
     retrieval.
 SCCPreprocessingVersion
     :Type: *string*
     :Location: Included in all the Low Resolution SCC L1 Product files
     The version of SCC used to produce the current Low
     Resolution SCC L1 Product
 Low Resolution SCC L1 Product Filename
 --------------------------------------
 The filename of the Low Resolution SCC L1 Products has the following
 format::
     measurementid_prodid.nc
 The *measurementid* is a 12 characters alphanumeric string identifying
 the measurement session at which the product refers to. The
 *measurementid* (which is unique for a given measurement session) allows
 to fully trance the SCC analysis performed on the current product. This
 can be done because each measurement session is recorded in a SCC
 database using the same string. In the same database the measurement
 session is linked to the lidar configuration used to analyze the data
 (which is recorded and fully characterized in the SCC database providing
 all the channel details) and to a set of optical products to calculate.
 The *prodid* is a numeric string identifying the optical product that
 has to be calculated by SCC (in particular ELDA module) by applying the
 optical retrieval algorithm on the current pre-processed L1 product.
 Different product types are defined within the SCC. The contents of a
 Low Resolution SCC L1 product depends on the type of the product
 specified in the its filename by prodid string. In particular only the
 **Aerosol Related Variables **\ and\ ** Polarization related variables**
 specified in the section 2.2 can change depending on product type. In
 Tab. 3.1 are reported the product-type related variables for each
 optical product type.
 To link the *prodid* string with the corresponding product type the SCC
 database a proper query to the SCC database should be addressed.

 Products for each optical product type
