New IVM Data v08r002 Now Available

Colin Triplett 0 66
The ICON Ion Velocity Meter (IVM) data product (L2.7) has been updated to version 8 revision 2 (v08r002) and is currently available for the full mission on the ICON FTP site and at NASA’s SPDF.   This is the final version of the IVM data product and should be used for all current and future analyses.   This product implements an updated algorithm to correct for offsets in ion drifts in the instrument frame and now includes estimated uncertainties for all derived geophysical quantities.
 
The electronic files (NetCDFs) can be found for the whole of the ICON mission at both the ICON FTP site and at the NASA SPDF.

A data browser developed by Dr. Yen-Jung Wu here at SSL allows you to make plots of ICON data very quickly, and once the data are plotted provides a quick link to the file at the NASA repository. 

 

IVM reprocessed for 2020 - 2021

Includes every day with a conjugate maneuver

Dr. Thomas Immel 0 1448

A number of IVM data are reprocessed on days between Feb 7, 2020 and Dec 22, 2021 where conjugate observation periods are present. The long list of these data is noted below. This correctly flags the IVM data mid-manuever to be good. It is recommended that if one is interested in data obtained during these short periods of time that you work with the latest revision of the data where the data quality flag is correct. Watch for timestamps reflecting the reprocessing date in February 2022 and an increase in the revision number over previously available data. Zip files containing these data will be published by Feb 14.
