General

This import is available since 2023.02. Only scalars are supported.

The GOES (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite) server import type allows you to retrieve data from the Local Readout Ground Stations (LRGS).

See more about the data format on the page dedicated to the related import type GOES

The import uses the lrgs library to connect to the specified server and collect the data. The specified view period is passed as argument to the server which interprets it as the period in which data has been received from the stations (which happens once per hour), and not as the period in which data has been measured. For example: if data is received every hour at 51 past the hour, with measurement at 00, 15, 30 and 45, and the configured start and end times are 10:30 to 11:30 on the same day, the data imported will be only the one received at 10:51, i.e. the data measured between 10:45 and 08:00.

Configuration example

To import a file placed in the import folder containing GOES data, use the following import configuration.
Import.xml

<import>
     <general>
         <importType>GOES_server</importType>
         <serverUrl>https://cdadata.wcda.noaa.gov/</serverUrl>
         <user>username</user>
         <password>dummy_password</password>
         <relativeViewPeriod unit="day" start="-1" end="0" startOverrulable="true"/>

         <idMapId>import_mapping</idMapId>
     </general>
     <properties>
         <int key="minutesOfLatestMeasurement" value="45"/>
     </properties>
     <timeSeriesSet>
         <moduleInstanceId>my_module_Id</moduleInstanceId>
         <valueType>scalar</valueType>
         <parameterId>H.m</parameterId>
         <locationId>Delft</locationId>
         <timeSeriesType>external historical</timeSeriesType>
         <timeStep unit="minute" multiplier="15"/>
         <readWriteMode>add originals</readWriteMode>
     </timeSeriesSet>
</import>


The import_mapping configuration is as follow. Note that the external names of the parameters cannot be changed. They correspond to the 8 different parameters in the data, in order of appearance.

<idMap>
    <parameter internal="H.m" external="Main Stage"/>
    <parameter internal="SecStage" external="Secondary Stage"/>
    <parameter internal="Precipitation" external="Rainfall"/>
    <parameter internal="Temperature" external="AirTemp"/>
    <parameter internal="Humidity" external="RH"/>
    <parameter internal="InternalHumidity" external="Internal RH"/>
    <parameter internal="RepeaterBattery" external="Repeater Battery"/>
    <parameter internal="MainBattery" external="Main Battery"/>
</idMap>
