Himawari-8 Cloud-top phase products

This product is derived from a decision tree algorithm for advanced Himawari imager (AHI) observations, and it provides cloud-top phase (temperature) on each AHI pixel. The cloud-top is distinguished as liquid water, ice, and mixed phases, and further classed into clear (or probably clear, probably cloudy), water, supercooled, mixed, thick ice, cirrus, overlap and overshooting in conjunction with the cloud-top height and optical thickness. The original product is a full-disk data with highest resolution of 2 km at the sub-satellite point (140.7 °E), then it is projected to equal-longitude-latitude grids (110-150°E, 10-50°N) and with resolution of 0.1°×0.1°, while the temporal resolution is 30 minutes. In the dataset, CldHeight means Cloud-top height from ACHA algorithm; CldTemperature means Cloud-top temperature from ACHA algorithm; CldType means Cloud types (clear=0, probably_clear=1, probably_cloudy=2, water=3, supercooled=4, mixed=5, Thick Ice=6, cirrus=7, overlap=8, overshooting=9) Data is stored as a binary matrix (401*401) corresponding to the domain of (110-150°E, 10-50°N),with a Header(128 byte).
