This page is just a place for me to jot down notes and links that I think might be generally useful from time to time.

Enjoyed meeting and seeing everyone at the QARTOD 2 meeting :)

---++ Mapserver GIS product for visualization of in-situ, remote sensing and modeling data layers

Here's the [[http://nautilus.baruch.sc.edu/twiki/pub/Main/JeremyCothranNotes/IOOS_data_aggregation.ppt][link]] to the second part of my powerpoint presentation where I was talking some about the IOOS interoperability project and some of the technical backend notes on the Seacoos product.

The Seacoos Mapserver GIS portal is at http://nautilus.baruch.sc.edu/portal_rs

We are currently collecting and displaying HF radar off the coast of North Carolina, Miami using the 'fixed-map' format category documented in the Seacoos netCDF convention and have demonstrated the ability to do this with HF radar datasets from Alaska(AOOS) as well.  Model particle trajectories are also a data layer as well.

A generalized powerpoint presentation (12 MB) on this product is at http://caro-coops.org/documents/presentations/seacoos/seacoos_mum_2004.ppt

My earlier technical documentation on this product is at http://twiki.sura.org/bin/view/Main/DataStandards

My earlier technical documentation on the general software we use is at

---+++ netCDF convention

This document includes netCDF examples of 6 general categories which we are trying to capture in the convention(fixed-point, fixed-profiler, fixed-map, moving-point-2D, moving-point-3D, moving-profiler).

http://nautilus.baruch.sc.edu/twiki_dmcc/pub/Main/WebHome/SEACOOSNetCDFStandardv2.0.doc

And here are the perl scripts which leverage the perl netCDF packages for interfacing with netCDF files as well as 'udunits' a library for time and units conversion of netCDF attributes to create SQL INSERT statements.

Draft notes for discussion on presenting qc attributes within the Seacoos netCDF convention

---++ !DODSFilterColumn

The code at the below link is designed to be used stand-alone and/or as a web service to help tranform the DODS client http ascii output(the 'Get ASCII' button) to something more column oriented (CSV Comma Separated Value). This can help the data be more easily viewed and understood as well as fed into other analysis tools, web services and databases. General and technical description available.
