Module Contents

class helikite.instruments.stap.STAP(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: helikite.instruments.base.Instrument

This class is a processed version of the STAP data

For outputs directly from the instrument, use the STAPRaw class

name = 'stap'

file_identifier(first_lines_of_csv) → bool

data_corrections(df, *args, **kwargs)

set_time_as_index(df: pandas.DataFrame) → pandas.DataFrame

Set the DateTime as index of the dataframe and correct if needed

Using values in the time_offset variable, correct DateTime index

read_data() → pandas.DataFrame

class helikite.instruments.stap.STAPRaw(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: helikite.instruments.base.Instrument

This instrument class is for the raw STAP data

name = 'stap_raw'

data_corrections(df, *args, **kwargs)

file_identifier(first_lines_of_csv) → bool

set_time_as_index(df: pandas.DataFrame) → pandas.DataFrame

Set the DateTime as index of the dataframe and correct if needed

Instrument contains date and time separately and appears to include an extra whitespace in the field of each of those two columns

read_data() → pandas.DataFrame
