These data are used to calculate the cosine correction in the level 2 UV product. For the calculation itself we use a modified version of the [[https://github.com/pec0ra/buvic|Brewer UV Irradiance Calculator (BUVIC)]] developed by Basile Maret and Julian Gröbner at the [[https://www.pmodwrc.ch/en/home/|PMOD/WRC]]. | These data are used to calculate the cosine correction in the level 2 UV product.
