Data processing |
: |
|
Processing for averaging |
: |
Processing for Hourly Data: Hourly data are generated by arithmetic means of the previous hour data
Invalid data are not included. An hour interval with less than 75% avalabl values is forced with a "-999" mean Processing for Daily Data: Daily data are generated by arithmetic means of the previous day data
Invalid data are not included. An daily interval with less than 75% avalable values is forced with a "-999" mean Processing for Monthly Data: Monthly data are generated by arithmetic means of the previous month data
Invalid data are not included. An monthly interval with less than 75% avalable values is forced with a "-999" mean |
