These files are METEOSAT observations to give cloud classification data. The file naming convention is: cxDDMMYYsxx.fis_tmp where DDMMYY is the date and xx = "slot number" Mean time (UT) is obtained from the slot number over the ASTEX region by the formula: UT = (xx/2) - 0.17 These files are: I1 pixels, 188 pixels/row, 163 rows. Each pixel has a spatial resolution of 0.08 degrees. The cloud type (1-15) is coded on the four Most Significant Bits. This code is: 1 -clear 2,3 -cloud edges 4 -thin cirrus 5,6 -thick cirrus 7 -perturbation 8,9,10 -low cumuliform 11,12 -low stratiform 13,14,15 -medium
