| range_min | 32-bit floating-point | Minimum in-range value. Any value less than this is counted in num_lo and is not used in the calculation of mean & dev. |
| range_max | 32-bit floating-point | Maximum in-range value. Any value greater than this is counted in num_hi and is not used in the calculation of mean & dev. |
| missing | 8-bit integer | Missing limits flags. Bit 0 (LSB) is 1 when yellow low (range_min) limit is missing; Bit 1 is high when yellow high (range_max) limit is missing; other bits unused, set to 0. |
| max_track | 32-bit integer | GeoTrack index (counting from 1) where max was found |
| max_xtrack | 32-bit integer | GeoXTrack index (counting from 1) where max was found |
| min_track | 32-bit integer | GeoTrack index (counting from 1) where min was found |
| min_xtrack | 32-bit integer | GeoXTrack index (counting from 1) where min was found |
Unlimited Engineering Struct: This type is used for engineering data fields for which there are NOT known "yellow" limits
| Field Name | Type | Explanation |
| min | 32-bit floating-point | Minimum value field takes on in granule (not valid when num = 0) |
| max | 32-bit floating-point | Maximum value field takes on in granule (not valid when num = 0) |
| mean | 32-bit floating-point | Mean of values field takes on in granule (not valid when num = 0) |
| dev | 32-bit floating-point | Standard Deviation of values field takes on in granule (not valid when num = 0) |
| num | 32-bit integer | Count of occurrences of field in granule (not including those counted in num_bad) |
| num_bad | 32-bit integer | Count of occassions on which field takes on invalid flag value (-9999) in granule |
| max_track | 32-bit integer | GeoTrack index (counting from 1) where max was found |
| max_xtrack | 32-bit integer | GeoXTrack index (counting from 1) where max was found |
| min_track | 32-bit integer | GeoTrack index (counting from 1) where min was found |
| min_xtrack | 32-bit integer | GeoXTrack index (counting from 1) where min was found |
AIRS Engineering Packet Counts: This type tracks counts of packets received during an interval by conditions under which they were received
| Field Name | Type | Explanation |
| missing_in | 16-bit integer | Count of packets missing between packets that are present |
| missing_ends | 16-bit integer | Count of packets missing at beginning or end of granule timespan: missing packets for which there are either no existing packets before them or no existing packets after them. (When all data is missing all packets will be counted here) |
| good | 16-bit integer | Count of packets not counted in any other category |
AIRS Science/Calibration Packet Counts: This type tracks counts of packets received during an interval by conditions under which they were received
| Field Name | Type | Explanation |
| missing_in | 16-bit integer | Count of packets missing between packets of any AIRS APID that are present |
| missing_ends | 16-bit integer | Count of packets missing at beginning or end of granule timespan: missing packets for which there are either no existing packets before them or no existing packets after them. (When all data is missing all packets will be counted here) |
| at_noop | 16-bit integer | Count of packets for which the spacecraft mode is not operational for some or all of the packet interval |
| illegal_mode | 16-bit integer | Count of packets for which there was an illegal instrument mode |
| special_cal | 16-bit integer | Count of packets for which the instrument was in a special calibration mode |
| invalid_data | 16-bit integer | Count of invalid packets (includes missing engineering) |
| good | 16-bit integer | Count of packets not counted in any other category |
