ftp Instruction for Result handling

In order to support automated processing of your results, please use the following directory structure and names convention for your results:

1. create a directory of 6 characters, which contain the acronym of your institution or the radiative transfer code you use; e.g. 'imk###' will be used for IMK.
2. please put all your files there without further use of subdirectories.
3. please use the following file name convention:

   res_atm_nlte_h_mwgeo01

   res =	hr --> high resolution exercise
   	mr --> medium resolution exercise
   atm =	md --> midlat. day
   	mn --> midlat. night
   	pw --> polar winter
   	ps --> polar summer
   nlte =	n --> nlte
   	l --> lte
   h:	no meaning in this context;
   mw =	01 --> first microwindow (15 micron region)
   	02 --> second microwindow (10 micron region)
   geo =	01 --> 40 km tangent altitude
   	02 --> 60 km tangent altitude
   	03 --> 80 km tangent altitude
   	04 --> 100 km tangent altitude

   01: no meaning in this context.

   so you will end up with a filename 16 characters long, such as "hr_md_n_h_010101"; the whole exercise contains 128 spectra.

4. additional information (slant path values etc) should be stored in files called res_atm_nlte_h_log.

Here is an example for the ftp transfer:
