Logical records

The station-to-archive file format is divided into so-called logical records (LR). For information on the format of the LR in the .dat files (ftp server) see Table A1 in:

In PANGAEA, each logical record (per station and month) is published as a stand-alone dataset. The following links lead to the data availability overview of each LR in PANGAEA:

Since about 2022 logical record LR4000 has been added in the station-to-archive files by some stations. For an updated format description of LR4000 see LR4000_Format.
