8. Overview of YH-1 science data level Data levelIdentifierDescription for processing level Level 1 (Raw) L1 Raw packaged data downlink from YH-1 satellite received at different ground stations, with science and engineering data embedded. Level 2 (Edited) L2 Instrument science data at full resolution, converted from binary to decimal (e.g., voltages, counts), time-ordered, splicing all data of once downlink from different ground stations together, with duplicates and errors removed, have been divided or merged based on Earth Day (UTC 00:00:00-23:59:59) or event. Level 3 (Calibrated) L3 Level 2 data that have been located in space and have been transformed (e.g., calibrated, rearranged) in a reversible manner and packaged with needed ancillary and auxiliary data. Level 4 (Resampled) L4 Irreversibly transformed (e.g., resampled, remapped, calibrated) values of the instrument measurements. Level 5 (Derived) L5 Geophysical parameters mapped onto uniform space-time grids, commensurate with instrument location, pointing, and sampling, and may have additional corrections applied. 8
