Colorado Student Space Weather Experiment (CSSWE)

The routines in this module can be used to load data from the Colorado Student Space Weather Experiment (CSSWE) mission.

Relativistic Electron and Proton Telescope integrated little experiment (REPTile)

pyspedas.csswe.reptile(trange=['2013-11-5', '2013-11-6'], datatype='flux', level='l2', suffix='', get_support_data=False, varformat=None, varnames=[], downloadonly=False, notplot=False, no_update=False, time_clip=False)

This function loads data from the Relativistic Electron and Proton Telescope integrated little experiment (REPTile)

Parameters

trange (list of str) – time range of interest [starttime, endtime] with the format ‘YYYY-MM-DD’,’YYYY-MM-DD’] or to specify more or less than a day [‘YYYY-MM-DD/hh:mm:ss’,’YYYY-MM-DD/hh:mm:ss’]
datatype (str) –

Data type; Valid options:
‘counts’ for L1 data ‘flux’ for L2 data
level (str) – Data level; options: ‘l1’, ‘l2’ (default: l2)
suffix (str) – The tplot variable names will be given this suffix. By default, no suffix is added.
get_support_data (bool) – Data with an attribute “VAR_TYPE” with a value of “support_data” will be loaded into tplot. By default, only loads in data with a “VAR_TYPE” attribute of “data”.
varformat (str) – The file variable formats to load into tplot. Wildcard character “*” is accepted. By default, all variables are loaded in.
varnames (list of str) – List of variable names to load (if not specified, all data variables are loaded)
downloadonly (bool) – Set this flag to download the CDF files, but not load them into tplot variables
notplot (bool) – Return the data in hash tables instead of creating tplot variables
no_update (bool) – If set, only load data from your local cache
time_clip (bool) – Time clip the variables to exactly the range specified in the trange keyword

Return type

List of tplot variables created.
