I’d be interested to know the ratio of the L0 data size to the L2/3/4 data[0] size – in other words, how many downlinked bits of sensor readout are processed per bit of useful science data? Of course that won’t be a hard number; I’m just curious to get a sense of the general scale on which the pipeline reduces pixels to physical parameters.
