Lidar product generation

Data from Vaisala WindCube Scan Lidars can be sent to IRIS Focus for visualization. Currently, PPI and FIXED scans are supported in IRIS Focus to be displayed or processed.

The Windforge software generates the data into a NetCDF file. The file is then sent to a specific directory in the Lidar Input Service, which in turn sends the file to Data Manager. IRIS Focus is compatible with the Windforge version 3.5.0.

IRIS Focus creates task names from ingested lidar data using the user-defined scan name in the lidar scan configuration. Lidar data previously ingested through IRIS Analysis may have a different scan naming scheme: the scan type and scan id (version of the configuration change in the lidar) separated by an underscore.
