In general, BBSO follows the SoHO convention (see below), except that the observation time will have six characters with format HHMMSS instead of four characters, and the miscellaneous info code will be modified to represent different spatial resolution and calibration data. Example: 1 2 3 012345678901234567890123456789012 <=== character index bbso_halph_fi_19930820_154122.fts <=== filename ---- ----- -- -------- ------ --- | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | File extension (3 chars) | | | | | | | | | Observation time (6 chars, in hhmmss format) | | | | | | | Observation date (8 chars, in yyyymmdd format) | | | | | Miscellaneous info code | | | Image type code (5 chars) | Institution code (4 chars) A standard BBSO file name will consist of 33 characters (including 4 underscore characters and a dot). Following are a list of institutes codes: BBSO Big Bear Solar Observatory KANZ Kanzelhoehe Solar Observatory YNAO Yunnan Astronomical Observatory CTAO Catanoa Astrophys. Obs HSOS Huairou Solar Observatory MEDN Meudon Observatory Miscellaneous info code consist of 2 characters: 1) "f" for full disk data and "r" for region data, i.e. partial frame 2) "i" - uncalibrated data; "l" - DC and FF corrected; "r" DC, FF and contrast enhanced data
