Identify possible channels for target file formats

Open ns-rse opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug

Trying to process a ASD file it was found that it did not have the existing set of channels that we are aware of.

They were instead listed as...

  • 0
  • 20564
  • 21061

Whilst we can add these as possible validated channels for the .asd file format it points to/suggests a wider problem in so much as there may be file specifications in use in the wild that we are not aware of.

To which end attempting to obtain a comprehensive sample of target file formats currently in use and that have been produced in the past would be beneficial so that we can enhance the channels that are supported.

This has scope for being compounded further as hardware manufacturers may change or modify their file specifications.

Would a potential solution be to say if no height channel is found it just tries to process the first channel in the data?
