Overshooting Tops Product MTSAT in SPDB
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/384.003

Summary
This dataset contains the overshooting tops product from the High Altitude Ice
Crystals - High Ice Water Content (HAIC-HIWC) project that took place in
Darwin, Australia. This data product is derived from the MTSAT satellite data
using the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Research
Applications Laboratory's (RAL) TITAN data system and is in Symbolic Product
database (SPDB) format. SPDB stores its data in day files, with two files per
day, one which contains the data chunks and one which contains the index of
the data chunks. The files are named: yyyymmdd.indx (index file) yyyymmdd.data
(data file). The files are grouped into one .tar file.
