+<li>The Single calculus chain is made of different modules. These modules don&#8217;t interact directly but only change value in a database.</li>
+<li>This interface will allow Earlinet memebers to interact with parts of the database.</li>
+<li>One part of the interface (the &#8220;Station admin&#8221; section) permits registering a new station, registerring new lidar systems and configuration, fill in details for the channels that constitute the system and finnaly define the products (extinction, backscatter e.t.c.) that need to be calculated by the SCC.</li>
+<li>The second part of the interface is dedicated to the uploading of new measurement files, the configuration of the measurement specific paramters and, finally, the retrieval of the calculated products.</li>
+<li>Different types of users, with different level of access permissions can have access in the interface. In this way, higher level of flexibility and security can be achived.</li>

+<div class="section" id="rationale">
+<h2>Rationale<a class="headerlink" href="#rationale" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
+<p>The Single Calculus Chain (SCC) is composed by two different modules:</p>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>pre-processing module ( scc_preprocessing)</li>
+<li>optical processing module ( ELDA)</li>
+</ul>
+<p>To perfom aerosol optical retrievals the SCC needs not only the raw
+lidar data but also a certain number of parameters to use in both
+pre-processing and optical processing stages. The SCC gets these
+parameters looking at two different locations:</p>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>Single Calculus Chain relational database (SCC_DB)</li>
+<li>Input files</li>
+</ul>
+<p>There are some paramenters that can be found only in the input files
+(those ones changing from measurement to measurement), others that can
+be found only in the SCC_DB and other ones that can be found in both
+these locations. In the last case, if a particular parameter is needed,
+the SCC will search first in the input files and then in SCC_DB. If the
+parameter is found in the input files the SCC will keep it without
+looking into SCC_DB.</p>
+<p>The input files have to be submitted to the SCC in NetCDF format. At the
+present the SCC can handle four different types of input files:</p>
+<ol class="arabic simple">
+<li>Raw Lidar Data</li>
+<li>Sounding Data</li>
+<li>Overlap</li>
+<li>Lidar Ratio</li>
+</ol>
+<p>As already mentioned, the  Raw Lidar Data file contains not only the
+raw lidar data but also other parameters to use to perform the
+pre-processing and optical processing. The  Sounding Data file
+contains the data coming from a correlative radiosounding and it is used
+by the SCC for molecular density calculation. The  Overlap file
+contains the measured overlap function. The  Lidar Ratio file contains
+a lidar ratio profile to use in elastic backscatter retrievals. The
+Raw Lidar Data file is of course mandatory and the  Sounding Data,
+Overlap and  Lidar Ratio files are optional. If  Sounding Data file
+is not submitted by the user, the molecular density will be calculated
+by the SCC using the “US Standard Atmosphere 1976”. If the  Overlap
+file is not submitted by the user, the SCC will get the full overlap
+height from SCC_DB and it will produce optical results starting from
+this height. If  Lidar Ratio file is not submitted by the user, the
+SCC will consider a fixed value for lidar ratio got from SCC_DB.</p>
+<p>The user can decide to submit all these files or any number of them (of
+course the file  Raw Lidar Data is mandatory). For example the user
+can submit together with the  Raw Lidar Data file only the  Sounding
+Data file or only the  Overlap file.</p>
+<p>This document provides a detailed explanation about the structure of the
+NetCDF input files to use for SCC data submission. All Earlinet groups
+should read it carefully because they have to produce such kind of input
+files if they want to use the SCC for their standard lidar retrievals.
+Every comments or suggestions regarding this document can be sent to
+Giuseppe D’Amico by e-mail at <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">damico&#64;imaa.cnr.it</span></tt></p>
+<p>This document is available for downloading at <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">www.earlinetasos.org</span></tt></p>
+<p>In table tab:rawdata is reported a list of dimensions, variables and
+global attributes that can be used in the NetCDF  Raw Lidar Data input
+file. For each of them it is indicated:</p>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>The name. For the multidimensional variables also the corresponding
+dimensions are reported</li>
+<li>A description explaining the meaning</li>
+<li>The type</li>
+<li>If it is mandatory or optional</li>
+</ul>
+<p>As already mentioned, the SCC can get some parameters looking first in
+the  Raw Lidar Data input file and then into SCC_DB. This means that
+to use the parameters stored in SCC_DB the optional variables or
+optional global attributes must not appear within  Raw Lidar Data
+file. This is the suggested and recommended way to use the SCC. Please
+include optional parameters in the  Raw Lidar Data only as an
+exception.</p>
+<p>In table tab:sounding, tab:overlap and tab:lr are reported all the
+information about the structure of  Sounding Data,  Overlap and
+Lidar Ratio input files respectively.</p>

+<p>Finally let’s assume we have also performed dark measurements before the
+lidar measurements from the 23:50:01 UT up to 23:53:01 UT of
+29:math:<cite>^mathrmth</cite> January 2009.</p>
+<div class="section" id="dimensions">
+<h3>Dimensions<a class="headerlink" href="#dimensions" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
+<p>Looking at table tab:rawdata we have to fix the following dimensions:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">points</span>
+<span class="n">channels</span>
+<span class="n">time</span>
+<span class="n">nb_of_time_scales</span>
+<span class="n">scan_angles</span>
+<span class="n">time_bck</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>The dimension <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">time</span></tt> is unlimited so we don’t have to fix it.</p>
+<p>We have 4 lidar channels so:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">channels</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">4</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>Regarding the dimension <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">points</span></tt> we have only one channel with a
+number of vertical bins equal to 3000 (the 1064nm) and all other
+channels with 5000 vertical bins. In cases like this the dimension
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">points</span></tt> has to be fixed to the maximum number of vertical bins so:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">points</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">5000</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>Moreover only one channel (1064nm) is acquired with a time resolution of
+30 seconds, all the other channels have a time resolution of 60 seconds.
+This means that we have to define two different time scales. We have to
+set:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">nb_of_time_scales</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">2</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>The measurement is performed only at one scan angle (5 degrees with
+respect to the zenith) so:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">scan_angles</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">1</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>We have 3 minutes of dark measurements and two different time scales one
+with 60 seconds time resolution and the other one with 30 seconds time
+resolution. So we will have 3 different dark profiles for the channels
+acquired with the first time scale and 6 for the lidar channels acquired
+with the second time scale. We have to fix the dimension <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">time_bck</span></tt> as
+the maximum between these values:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">time_bck</span><span class="o">=</span><span class="mi">6</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="section" id="variables">

+have two different time scales: one is characterized by steps of 30
+seconds (the 1064nm is acquired with this time scale) the other by
+steps of 60 seconds (532cross, 532parallel and 607nm). Moreover the
+measurement start time is 00:00:01 UT and the measurement stop time

+<p>This example file contains the minimum collection of mandatory
+information that has to be found within the  Raw Lidar Data input
+file. If it is really necessary, the user can decide to add to these
+mandatory parameters any number of additional parameters considered in
+the previous example.</p>
+<p>Finally, suppose we want to make the following changes with respect to
+the previous example:</p>
+<ol class="arabic simple">
+<li>use a sounding file for molecular density calculation instead of “US
+Standar Atmosphere 1976”</li>
+<li>supply a lidar ratio profile to use in elastic backscatter retrieval
+instead of a fixed value</li>
+<li>provide a overlap function for overlap correction</li>
+</ol>
+<p>In this case we have to generate the following NetCDF additional files:</p>
+<dl class="docutils">
+<dt>rs_20090130cc00.nc</dt>
+<dd>The name of  Sounding Data file has to be computed as follows:
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&quot;rs_&quot;``+``Measurement_ID</span></tt>
+The structure of this file is summarized in table tab:sounding.</dd>
+<dt>ov_20090130cc00.nc</dt>
+<dd>The name of  Overlap file has to be computed as follows:
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&quot;ov_&quot;``+``Measurement_ID</span></tt>
+The structure of this file is summarized in table tab:overlap.</dd>
+<dt>lr_20090130cc00.nc</dt>
+<dd>The name of  Lidar Ratio file has to be computed as follows:
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">&quot;lr_&quot;``+``Measurement_ID</span></tt>
+The structure of this file is summarized in table tab:lr.</dd>
+</dl>
+<p>Moreover we need to apply the following changes to the  Raw Lidar Data
+input file:</p>
+<ol class="arabic">
+<li><p class="first">Change the value of the variable <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Molecular_Calc</span></tt> as follows:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">Molecular_Calc</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mi">1</span> <span class="p">;</span>
+</pre></div>
+</div>
+<p>Of course the variables <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Pressure_at_Lidar_Station</span></tt> and
+<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Temperature_at_Lidar_Station</span></tt> are not necessary anymore.</p>
+</li>
+<li><p class="first">Change the values of the array <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LR_Input</span></tt> as follows:</p>
+<div class="highlight-python"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="n">LR_Input</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mi">0</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="n">_</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="n">_</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="n">_</span> <span class="p">;</span>
