Observation Instance
Get a list of Observation objects.
### Available end points:
- `/observations/` - Will list all Results in the database
- `/observations.json` - Will return all Results in json format. This can
also be achieved by using the accept header. `application/json`
- `/observations/<object_id>/` - Returns Results object with that id
### Available Methods:
- `GET`
- `HEAD`
### Available filters:
- `title`
- `uuid`
- `keywords`
- `status`
- `result_field`
- `discoveryKeywords`
- `updateFrequency`
- `nonGeographicFlag`
- `publicationState`
- `permissions`
### How to use filters:
These filters can be used like django query filters using __ for related model relationships.
- `/observations/?uuid=d594d53df2612bbd89c2e0e770b5c1a0`
- `/observations/?status=completed`
- `/observations/?results_field__dataPath__startswith=/neodc/esacci`
- `/observations/?discoveryKeywords__name=ESACCI`
- `/observations/?nonGeographicFlag=True`
Filters can be stacked to build an 'AND' relationship. E.g.
- `/observations/?publicationState__in=published,citable&nonGeographicFlag=True`
- `/observations/?publicationState__in=published,citable&discoveryKeyword__name=NDGO0003`

ACSE took place in the Arctic during summer 2014. These measurements were used to complement a suite of other observations taken during the cruise. Those of the UK contribution, as well as selected other data, are available within the associated data collection in the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) archives. Other cruise data may be available in the NOAA ACSE and The Bolin Centre for Climate Research SWERUS (SWEdish-Russian-US) holdings - see online resources linked to this record.\r\n\r\nThe data provide altitudes of cloud base and top for the first two cloud layers. Cloud base was established from the laser ceilometer (base of liquid cloud) whist he cloud top was established from the cloud radar data. \r\n\r\nWhere fog was detected, the fog top altitude from the radar data is given. Note: it was possible for the radar to detect a cloud top where the laser ceilometer was not able to detecte a cloud base.\r\n\r\nThese data were prepared for archiving as NetCDF data at the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) by Ian Brooks, University of Leeds.\r\n\r\nThe Arctic Cloud Summer Expedition (ACSE) was a collaboration between the University of Leeds, the University of Stockholm, and NOAA-CIRES. ACSE aimed to study the response of Arctic boundary layer cloud to changes in surface conditions in the Arctic Ocean as a working package of the larger Swedish-Russian-US Investigation of Climate, Cryosphere and Carbon interaction (SWERUS-C3) Expedition in Summer 2014. This expedition was a core component to the overall SWERUS-C3 programme and was supported by the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat.\r\n\r\nACSE took place during a 3-month cruise of the Swedish Icebreaker Oden from Tromso, Norway to Barrow, Alaska and back over the summer of 2014. During this cruise ACSE scientists measured surface turbulent exchange, boundary layer structure, and cloud properties. Many of the measurements used remote sensing approaches - radar, lidar, and microwave radiometers - to retrieve vertical profiles of the dynamic and microphysical properties of the lower atmosphere and cloud.\r\n\r\nThe UK participation of ACSE was funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC, grant: NE/K011820/1) and involved instrumentation from the Atmospheric Measurement Facility of the UK's National Centre for Atmospheric Science (NCAS AMF). This dataset collection contains data mainy from the UK contribution with some additional data from other institutes also archived to complement the suite of meteorological measurements.", "keywords": "turbulent fluxes, meteorology, winds, wind speed", "publicationState": "citable", "dataPublishedTime": "2018-04-14T12:59:56", "doiPublishedTime": null, "updateFrequency": "notPlanned", "status": "final", "result_field": { "ob_id": "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/observations/26027/?format=api", "dataPath": "/badc/acse/data/composite-cloud-layer-data", "oldDataPath": [], "storageLocation": "internal", "storageStatus": "online", "volume": 6374365, "numberOfFiles": 2, "fileFormat": "Data are CF-compliant NetCDF formatted." }, "timePeriod": "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/times/7027/?format=api", "geographicExtent": "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/bboxes/2195/?format=api", "nonGeographicFlag": false, "phenomena": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/4385/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/54754/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/56478/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/56479/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/56480/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/56481/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/phenomona/56482/?format=api" ], "dataLineage": "Data were collected, quality controlled and prepared for archiving by the instrument scientists before upload to the Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) for long term archiving.", "removedDataTime": null, "removedDataReason": "", "language": "English", "identifier_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/identifiers/10099/?format=api" ], "projects": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/projects/24932/?format=api" ], "observationcollection_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/observationcollections/25948/?format=api" ], "responsiblepartyinfo_set": [ "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108843/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108841/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108842/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108844/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108845/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108846/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108847/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108848/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/109264/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/108849/?format=api", "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/rpis/109265/?format=api" ], "procedureAcquisition": "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/acquisitions/26029/?format=api", "procedureCompositeProcess": null, "procedureComputation": null, "permissions": [ { "ob_id": "https://api.catalogue.ceda.ac.uk/api/v2/observations/2522/?format=api", "useLimitation": null, "accessConstraints": null, "accessCategory": "registered", "accessRoles": null, "label": "registered: None group", "licenceURL": "http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/doc/open-government-licence/version/3/", "licenceClassifications": "any" } ], "discoveryKeywords": [ { "ob_id": 1138, "name": "NDGO0003" } ] }
