Simulated data of a radio-astronomic observation with LOFAR 2.0

This data accompanies the work "Investigating Ionospheric Calibration for LOFAR 2.0 with Simulated Observations" [to be published]. The aim of this data is to assist in the development of calibration strategies for LOFAR 2.0. This repository contains the raw simulated and dysco-compressed measurement sets as well the simulation input corruptions and skymodels. The measurement sets are stored as tar-archives: tgts_HBA_compressed.MS.tar tgts_LBA_compressed.MS.tar cal_HBA_compressed.MS.tar cal_LBA_compressed.MS.tar The input corruptions are stored as h5parm files and can be read e.g. using LoSoTo: corruptions_calibrator.h5 corruptions_target.h5
