Intro

This is a place to post your OOS related code developments or links. Not sure the best way to organize this - currently I'd say by individual, institution or project/program.

Web graphics (dials/gauges)

Web graphs (time series plots) using GD::Graph

Easy twiki install

Online Data Dictionary utility

Developed for use by SeaCOOS^? , but the functionality is general enough that the application and the source code are being made available for general use by the community.

Buoy query and graphs using gnuplot

Going from Datalogger files to 'Point' form on a relational database

DODSFilterColumn

The code at the above 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.

Basic php registration page

A basic html form processed by php with mail notification and appending of corresponding html and csv documents. Zip file should contain all files - change form fields, personnel notified by mail and site references as needed. Article reference http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/feedbackphp.shtml

PlatformToDatabase

Some basic scripts showing the processing of a platform datastreams(directly, via telnet) to population of the relational database and some other side products.

ScreenScraping

Some basic scripts showing the process of screen/web scraping to create sql statements for populating a relational database.

Meta-Door

Caro-COOPS is supporting the development of unique data management solutions for coastal ocean observing systems. For example, the "Meta-Door" second-generation online metadata entry tool is now available via the link below. This tool evolved from the "Cast-Net" initiative of the Southern Association of Marine Laboratories (SAML) and the Southeastern Universities Research Association (SURA) with funding from NSF EPSCoR^?. Development of the Cast-Net tool resulted from a cooperative effort among five regional sites: the Baruch Institute for Marine and Coastal Sciences at the University of South Carolina, Dauphin Island Sea Lab Alabama, the Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium, the Skidaway Institute of Oceanography of the University System of Georgia and the University of Southern Mississippi.

The Cast-Net metadata tool was developed to provide a convenient and user-friendly mechanism for generating FGDC-compliant metadata. Increased and broad-based use of Cast-Net demonstrated the need for enhanced capabilities and more comprehensive capacities for data and system documentation. Meta-Door is a complete regeneration of the Cast-Net metadata tool designed to handle the needs of a broad range of contemporary users. Meta-Door resembles Cast-Net in appearance and functionality while providing an enhanced user driven file management system and an easier, more reliable application interface. It has been completely re-programmed to work with a relational database that will eventually allow for more sophisticated indexing services. Future versions of Meta-Door will allow users to incorporate additional metadata standards as new standards emerge and become widely used in the ocean coastal observing communities.

Meta-Door has been rebuilt from the ground up with Java Struts to be database- and OS-independent. New features include:

• User administration with simplified registration and profile management
• Additional metadata formatting options for review
• Option to remove published metadata from ISite
• Lightweight GIS for input of Geo-location information
• User interface improvements, including collapsible form layout

Users may register and use the Meta-Door system for entering their metadata records at the following link.
