Conversion to HARP required format

HARP

Hi Saander

I tried to inspect the IASI product using

harpdump IASI_METOPA_L2_CO_20190101_ULB-LATMOS_CDR_V1.2.1.nc

however, it returns

ERROR: IASI_METOPA_L2_CO_20190101_ULB-LATMOS_CDR_V1.2.1.nc: unsupported product

then i realized that the file was written in hdf5 format which i finally managed to list the contents using

h5dump -n IASI_METOPA_L2_CO_20190101_ULB-LATMOS_CDR_V1.2.1.nc

Then, I tried to convert it to HARP required format with the variable CO_total_column included in the conversion process. However, though converting CO_total_column to HARP is technically possible, including global attributes and other associated variables made it impossible due to the run out of memory. I really want to convert IASI_METOPA_L2_CO_20190101_ULB-LATMOS_CDR_V1.2.1.nc to HARP required format. Can you share your experience please ?
