If the current hour RAIN1 eventually arrives, it does not trigger the scheduling algorithm
since the Next Data Time in the Product Scheduler has already advanced to the next
hour. However, it is used in future RAIN-N processing, that is, for the next hour.

3.14 RAW: Raw Data
Figure 19 RAW Example Configuration
A RAW data file that contains the raw signal processor output parameters (Z, ZT, V, W, ZDR,
and so on) in polar coordinates.
RAW products are made one-for-one from ingest files.
A RAW file contains all the information collected during a measurement task. It is
compressed so it can be sent over the network to IRIS Analysis.
While RAW data cannot be displayed, it is useful for recording on tape/disk/DVD or
transferring to another IRIS network computer for product generation.
When a RAW product file is either retrieved from tape or received from another IRIS
computer, an ingest file is created so that products can be generated. The RAW product is
used in the following ways:
• Oine Analysis System: RAW products are stored on tape and later read back to an
IRIS Analysis system (not necessarily the radar host) so products can be generated for
analysis or testing.
