Description: | DATA REPROCESSED and CORRECTED:
Due to the high aerosol conditions at Niamey, the TSI appeared to be beyond the limits of
processing the color JPEG image into cloud fraction values. The processed images indicate
an opaque sky cover, even in the absence of clouds. The problem was corrected by
removing the neutral density filter from the lens and re-adjusting the sky filter values.
The data were archived in January 2017. Please retrieve the reprocessed data for use in
your analysis.

--- ORIGINAL DQR DESCRIPTION ---
---------------------------------------------------
Due to the high aerosol conditions at Niamey, the TSI appeared to be beyond the limits of
processing the color JPEG image into cloud fraction values. Several attempts to adjust
the sky filter values used to process the images did not yielded the desired results. The
processed images indicate an opaque sky cover, even in the absence of clouds.
The problem was corrected by removing the neutral density filter from the lens and
re-adjusting the sky filter values.
The data can be reprocessed. |
