The Wave dictionary contains classes that describe the composition of multidimensional wave data consisting of Array (and Array subclass) data objects.
Steward: PPI
The Axis_Values class describes the values which are associated with the elements along an axis of a observation data array.
| Attribute | Min Occur. | Max Occur. |
|---|---|---|
| Local_Internal_Reference | 1 | 1 |
| axis_number | 1 | 1 |
The Face_Values class describes the values which are associated with the elements on the face of a observation data array.
| Attribute | Min Occur. | Max Occur. |
|---|---|---|
| Local_Internal_Reference | 1 | 1 |
| Face_Plane | 1 | 1 |
The Face_Plane class describes a plane which is defined by two axes.
| Attribute | Min Occur. | Max Occur. |
|---|---|---|
| face_axis | 2 | 2 |
The Local_Internal_Reference class is used to cross-reference other classes or objects within the product.
| Attribute | Min Occur. | Max Occur. |
|---|---|---|
| pds.local_identifier_reference | 1 | 1 |
| local_reference_type | 1 | 1 |
| pds.comment | 0 | 1 |
The Wave_Observation describes the data of a observation and the values which are associated with the elements along an axis or on the face of a observation data array.
| Attribute | Min Occur. | Max Occur. |
|---|---|---|
| pds.name | 1 | 1 |
| pds.local_identifier | 0 | 1 |
| pds.description | 1 | 1 |
| Primary_Values | 1 | 1 |
| Axis_Values | 0 | * |
| Face_Values | 0 | * |
The Primary_Values class describes the values which are the primary observation data array.
| Attribute | Min Occur. | Max Occur. |
|---|---|---|
| Local_Internal_Reference | 1 | 1 |
The index of the axis. The first axis is numbered as 1.
Type: ASCII_Integer
The axis number that defines one axis of a face plane.
Type: ASCII_Integer
The local_reference_type attribute provides the name of an association between an entity identified by a local_identifier_reference and another corresponding entity identified by a local_identifier
Type: ASCII_Short_String_Collapsed
Allowed Values:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| wave_observation_to_observation_values | A reference to the array containing the primary observation data. |
| wave_observation_to_axis_values | A reference to the array containing the data values for an axis of primary observation data. |
| wave_observation_to_face_values | A reference to the array containing the data values for a face of primary observation data. |
