> Raw2scc [name=MAD]
```gherkin=
Feature: extract RAW licel files and sort them
Scenario: Unzip repository in BDD sirta and get the RM licel files
Given raw2scc access the zip files, unzip and read RM files
Then raw2scc saves the RM files for one haour range HH-30mn,HH+30mn
```
> licel2scc [name=MAD][name=ioannis][name=CP]
```gherkin=
Feature: convert raw RM licel files to netcdf files
nc files compatible with SCC algo
uses IPRAL systems configuration
Scenario: licel2scc reads RM licel files and convert to nc files
Given IPRAL configuration py file containing related channel list of IPRAL in RM files and channel list in SCC interface
And convert
Then provide one nf file per hour of measurements
```
> scc_access API [name=MAD][name=ioannis]
```gherkin=
Feature: submit nc input files to SCC algo using API interface
Scenario: interact with SCC web interface
Given a nc input file
And a system number of the SCC configuration for IPRAL lidar
Then SCC algo process the corresponding measurement of the nc file
And returns the results of the submission process (success or fail)
And returnes the products out of SCC processing or the error messages from SCC
```
> Single Calculus Chain Configuration [name=CP][name=Giuseppe]
```gherkin=
Feature: Channels configuration and Processing scheme
describe IPRAL channels used for optical retrievals
describe IPRAL product retrievals depending of system
take into accound telescope and if raman channels are on or off
Scenario: submit nec files linked to a system number
Given system number
Then apply the corresponding processing schemes for that system
And provide nc products files for each stage of retrievals
And error messages obtained during the processing
```

**Problèmes rencontrés ou questions?**
- Vérifier que la soumission à SCC avec le mode automatique code 0 pour utiliser le modèle demande ou non la pression et température au sol [name=CP]
- Réponse de CP: le mode automatique fonctionne bien avec le mode 0. CP a testé sur le jour 01/25/2021 il suffit de ne pas mettre de nom de fichier dans le champs 'Sounding_File_Name': "" , du fichier conf_ipral_375-376-377-378.py et de parametrer 'Molecular_Calc': 0, au lieu de 1
- Vérifier un cas de janvier 25 pour la soumission automatique et voir les fichiers reçus après traitement [name=MAD]
