Swath - This the the size of the swath in kilometers. Note the | Swath - This the the size of the swath in kilometers. Note the ACTUAL SWATH SIZE IS TWICE THIS since this is the size of the swath on either side of the groud track. If this is 0 you will just get the ground track of the actual satellite. | ||
Halo - This allows one to had a halo around the swath where the number is the number of extra grid points to swath outside of the generated sattellite swath | Halo - This allows one to had a halo around the swath where the number is the number of extra grid points to swath outside of the generated sattellite swath | ||

3. Name of new variable. This is what the new masked export will be name. The variable of this name can now be exported via the History from the SatSim component like any of the native exports of SatSim. | 3. Name of new variable.

Finally any mask defined in the MAPL_OrbGridComp.rc file can be exported in History as a standard 2D field with the same name as the instrument from the 'ORBIT' component. For example to output TERRA and MOPITT masks defined in the example MAPL_OrbGridComp.rc define a collection with the fields attribute like so: | |||

collection_name.fields: 'TERRA' , 'ORBIT' , | |||
'MOPITT' , 'ORBIT' , | |||
