1. On the use of the CRC for decoding Argo data
CRC (cyclic redundancy check) = checksum used to detect potential transmission error
Argo platforms using CRC : PROVOR, APEX, SOLO WHOI, NEMO
Do all DACs use the CRC in a consistent way ?
Recommendations for RT decoding:
Ignore messages for which CRC check failed
Keep all received messages with correct CRC and decode the most redundant message

2. -*- re-decoded data (CRC used) O data from DAC, flag 1
O data form DAC, flag ≠ 1
Temperature
Salinity

3. Zoom on the temperature profile
5-point message corrupted
1 bad data with a flag ≠ 1
1 bad data with a flag = 1
3 data points are not obviously wrong but are they good ?
Potential error in the flagging
Extra work for the DM operator
