5.2.1 THFs in near real-time

How: The GBTS will make telemetry headers available in 15 minute blocks. The 15 minute blocks will have names based on the start time of each block, in the format YYMMDDHHMM.ktg, where the YYMMDD is the date of the data in the file and the HHMM is the time of the first data in the file, but in even 15 minute boundaries (e.g. data taken on 97 March 15 from 0h22m01s to 0h30m00s UTC will be placed in a file named `9703150015.ktg').

DOTS will create 10 minute telemetry header files.

The file format is given in ``VSOP Science Header Data Format''.

When: For the GBTS, each telemetry header block will be available 2 minutes after the end of that 15 minute block (e.g. 9703150015.ktg will be available at 97 March 15 at 00h32m00s.)

DOTS will place files on its FTP site within 30 minutes of the start of each 10 minute telemetry header file.

Where: For DSN GTSs: the 10 minute THFs are available from
pub/vsop/vsopoper/data/srt/dsn/kutlm2, on the DOTS FTP site.
For the GBTS: the files are available in the GBTS FTP site in directory /ovlbi/out/kutlm2.
For the Usuda GTS: from /vsop/vsopoper/data/srt/udsc/kutlm on the VSOG FTP site.
See §10.1 for details of these sites.
