Model output file format:
Year DOY Hour Min Sec Lat Lon TEC[TECU]
Here DOY is day of year, and TEC is Total Electron Content [TECU] at Lat + 2.5 [deg] and Lon + 2.5 [deg]. Lat and Lon are geographic latitude and longitude that correspond to first latitude and first longitude of the bin for measurement data to be compared with. Hour, Min and Sec also correspond to first Hour, Min, and Sec of the temporal bin for measurement data to be compared with.
TEC modeled value will be compared with GPS TEC measurement, which is median value over 15-min temporal bin (e.g., 00:00:00-00:15:00) and 5° lat x 5° lon spatial bin (e.g., -90°~ -85° lat and 25°~30° lon).
