## Mapping description

The table below details where and how each variable was retrieved from the input product.

field name | mapping description
--- | ---
scan_subindex | path | /scp[]
datetime | path | /@Data_date, /time[]
description | datetime converted from the epoch of the product and an offset in hours to hours since 2000-01-01
