(2) Payload
OG1: 15 of 16 mandatory global attributes present · 7 highly-desirable missing — see the File contents page for the full attribute listing.
Payload — a sensor counts as present when its OG1 variable exists in the file; the source is the SENSOR_* catalog entry named by the variable's sensor attribute, and the model and attributes are read from that entry (as in the File-contents sensor catalog).

| Salinity | PSAL | sensor_ctd | — | — |
| Oxygen | — | — | — | — |

(5) QC — as delivered
As delivered — rtqc_method: No QC applied. Flag labels are read from each variable's flag_meanings. The file does not record the thresholds used.
Inconsistent flag scale — CNDC (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9); CNDC_RAW (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9); GLIDE_SPEED (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9); PSAL (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9); PSAL_RAW (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9); TEMP (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9); TEMP_RAW (flag_values has 1, flag_meanings has 9). Default category names used for these.

(6) QC — glidertest diagnostics
Profile number: No issues detected. Profile duration: 10 profiles have abnormal duration.
glidertest diagnostics — run on the fly, not written to the file. Thresholds are glidertest's own (hardcoded for the Baltic), shown so the verdict can be reproduced.
| Variable | Test | Suspect range / threshold | Fail range / threshold |
|---|---|---|---|
| TEMP | gross-range | [0, 30] | [-2.5, 40] (not applied) |
| TEMP | spike | |Δ| > 2.0 | |Δ| > 6.0 |
| TEMP | flat-line | flat ≥ 1 s (tol ±0.001) | flat ≥ 3 s (tol ±0.001) |
| TEMP | hysteresis | > 5% dive–climb error per depth bin | > 5 bins exceed |
| PSAL | gross-range | [5, 38] | [2, 41] (not applied) |
| PSAL | spike | |Δ| > 0.3 | |Δ| > 0.9 |
| PSAL | flat-line | flat ≥ 1 s (tol ±0.001) | flat ≥ 3 s (tol ±0.001) |
| PSAL | hysteresis | > 5% dive–climb error per depth bin | > 5 bins exceed |
Test × variable: flagged-sample counts (per-sample tests show a small dashed bar). Gross range applies the suspect span only — the fail span above is not yet evaluated. Hysteresis counts depth bins with >5% dive–climb error; a variable is flagged when more than 5 bins exceed it.
| Test | TEMP | PSAL |
|---|---|---|
| Gross range | clean | clean |
| Spike | clean | 6 susp 1 fail |
| Flat line | 79,711 fail | 77,856 fail |
| Hysteresis (mean) | 18/988 bins | 0/988 bins |
| Hysteresis (range) | 46/988 bins | 15/988 bins |
