Subject: | NIM/TSI/M1 - Reprocess: Data processing problem |
DataStreams: | nimtsicldmaskM1.a1, nimtsiskycoverM1.b1 |
Description: | Due to the high aerosol conditions at Niamey, the TSI appeared to be beyond the limits of processing the color JPEG image into cloud fraction values. Several attempts to adjust the sky filter values used to process the images did not yielded the desired results. The processed images indicate an opaque sky cover, even in the absence of clouds. The problem was corrected by removing the neutral density filter from the lens and re-adjusting the sky filter values. The data can be reprocessed. |

Subject: | NIM/TSI/M1 - Shadowband glare |
DataStreams: | nimtsiskycoverM1.b1 |
Description: | When the neutral density filter was removed from the lens, the reflection of the sun from the smooth shadowband strip became much brighter causing a glare in the image on clear days. To minimize this reflection, a rough surface (the "fuzzy" side of an adhesive velco strip) was placed along the length of the shadowband. |
