Output

• output_file. Text file with data in colums separated by ";" (same number of rows as the sum of all input files)
  • prid,lat,lon,elev,value,dqc,sct,rep

Customization

It is possible to customize the IO by using optional command line arguments

• --varname.lat name for the latitude variable (in/out)
• --varname.lon name for the longitude variable (in/out)
• --varname.elev name for the elevation variable (in/out)
• --varname.value name for the temperature variable (in/out)
• --varname.opt additional optional variables to be written on the output (out)
• --varname.prid name for the provider identifier (out)
• --varname.dqc name for the data quality control flag (out)

Note the order of the columns in the output file is the same as the order of the columns in the first input file. The columns: prid, dqc are added after the other columns in the output file. In case one of the --varname.opt columns is not available in the input file, then it appears after the other columns in the output file.

The separator used in the input file can be specified with --separator , while the separator to use in the output file can be specified by --separator.out .

The number of decimal digits for several parameters in the output file can be specified by using the command-line parameters:

• --latlon.dig.out for the latitude and longitude.
• --elev.dig.out for the elevation
• --value.dig.out for the observations

Abbreviations

• prid. identifier of the observation provider
• lat. latitude
• lon. longitude
• elev. elevation (m amsl)
• value. temperature value (degC)
• dqc. data quality control code
