About coefficient update in header file or static anc
Posted: Wed Feb 06, 2013 1:18 pm
We are facing a decision now whether we want to keep some threshold values in a header file: or in the static ancillary input file: .
I understand that it requires no RPO code change if we simply want to update any processing coefficient in the static ancillary input file.
However, if we want to change any threshold values in the header file, it requires a recompiling of the source code and thus a code change has to be requested to get into future builds, which will significantly delay our algorithm improving process.
Therefore, we wonder whether we can move some of the threshold values in the aerosol retrieval header files to the aerosol static ancillary input files.
My question is, how difficult it is from the code change perspective? Does ADL have to go through lots of complicated changes in many other structural xml files to incorporate additional threshold values in the static ancillary input file? If so, where I can find the corresponding XML file for the two files to make corresponding changes? Any other changes might complicate the issue?
Thank you very much!
