This document outlines the unix directory structure used at the BADC for the UTLS-OZONE data archive. The structure reflects conventions adopted by the BADC for other data archives, which are based on ease of navigation and access.
Most, but not all, of the files relating to data collected as part of UTLS-OZONE funded projects are stored at the BADC under /badc/utls-ozone. This directory has subdirectories data, doc, and software, that contain the data, documentation, and software respectively. Some files relating to data collected as part of UTLS-OZONE funded projects are held elsewhere on the BADC. These are from the MST radar which are regularly archived at the BADC in the directory /badc/mst.
The /badc/utls-ozone/data directory is split in to a number of subdirectories. These are based loosely on individual projects. It is not, however, appropriate to have a subdirectory for each individual project. For instance the Aberystwyth ozone sonde and LIDAR profiles have been funded by several projects and there are some overlaps. To make access to the ozone sonde and LIDAR data simple and to avoid repetition the ozone profiles are stored in a subdirectory not associated with an individual project.
