+   of the measurement again in the "Station Admin" section.
+
+Data file (Required)
+   In this field you have to select the measurement file that will be processed.
+   The file has to be in the specific format described in :ref:`netcdf_file`. 
+    
+Sounding file (Optional)
+   In this optional field you can submit a sounding file that will be used
+   by your measurements in the processing. The file needs to follow the netcdf
+   file format specified in the pdf file found in the :ref:`netcdf_file` section. 
+   The file you submit will not be  necessarily connected with the 
+   submitted measurement; which sounding file will be used in the processing of 
+   each measurement is specified in the measurement's file. The file you upload 
+   will, nevertheless, remain on the SCC and will be used whenever needed.
+   
+Overlap file (Optional)

+   by your measurements in the processing. The file needs to follow the netcdf
+   file format specified in the pdf file found in the :ref:`netcdf_file` section.

+   file format specified in the pdf file found in the :ref:`netcdf_file` section. 
+   The file you submit will not be  necessarily connected with the 
+   submitted measurement; which lidar ratio file will be used in the processing 
+   of each measurement is specified in the measurement's file. The file you 
+   upload will, nevertheless, remain on the SCC and will be used whenever needed.
+   
+Categories (Optional)
+   You can assign a number of categories to the uploaded measurement. The
