satpy.readers.mwr_l1c module

Reader for the Arctic Weather Satellite (AWS) MWR level-1c data.

MWR = Microwave Radiometer, onboard AWS and EPS-Sterna

Sample data provided by ESA September 27, 2024.

Example:

Here is an example how to read the data in satpy:

from satpy import Scene
from glob import glob

filenames = glob("data/W_XX-OHB-Stockholm,SAT,AWS1-MWR-1C-RAD_C_OHB_*20240913204851_*.nc")

scn = Scene(filenames=filenames, reader='aws1_mwr_l1c_nc')

composites = ['mw183_humidity']
dataset_names = composites + ['1']

scn.load(dataset_names)
print(scn['1'])
scn.show('mw183_humidity')

class satpy.readers.mwr_l1c.AWS_MWR_L1CFile(filename, filename_info, filetype_info, auto_maskandscale=True)[source]

Bases: AWS_EPS_Sterna_BaseFileHandler

Class implementing the AWS L1c Filehandler.

This class implements the ESA Arctic Weather Satellite (AWS) Level-1b NetCDF reader. It is designed to be used through the Scene class using the load method with the reader "aws_l1c_nc".

Initialize the handler.

_get_navigation_data(dataset_id, dataset_info)[source]: Get the navigation (geolocation) data.

get_dataset(dataset_id, dataset_info)[source]: Get the data.

property sensor: Get the sensor name.
