The list of pertinent MIDAS descriptors should be stored into a MIDAS table containing the following columns:
DESCR_INAME (Character Column) contains the list of MIDAS descriptors to be mapped into the columns of the OST. IPOS (Integer Column) contains for each descriptor the position of the element to be read. DESCR_ONAME (Character Column) contains for each descriptor the label of the column of the OST in which its values will be stored. OTYPE (Character Column) contains for each descriptor the type of the column of the OST in which its values will be stored. I (integer), R(eal), D(double precision), C*n (character string)
The following columns will be automatically created in the OST:
Table shows a descriptor table created for NTT data obtained with the SUSI instrument. (Most of the examples in this document will be based on this set of 14 SUSI files.)
