Hinode Spectropolarimeter (SP) Level 1 (Calibrated) Full Stokes Data

Calibrated full Stokes data from the spectropolarimeter (SP) onboard the Hinode satellite. Calibrated 3D data (spectral dimension x spatial dimension x 4 Stokes parameters) ready for scientific analysis. These data are stored as individual FITS files for each SP integration (slit position), grouped into tar files for each commanded SP operation (i.e. map), and labeled by the UT start time of that observation (i.e. 20061110_130011 = yyyymmdd_hhmmss). Level 1 processing skips any files in which substantial telemetry packet loss has occurred. The corresponding FITS files are deleted from the Level 1 data.
