5 programs for near real time plotting of orbcomm data to be put onto the web. Each program requires a file of columnated ASCII data, with all punctuation marks such as : , ^M ; / removed. 1. Orby11 --> currently fitted to the toroid buoy. -------------------------------------------------- plot_orby11(file) --> plots the data in the specified file. At the moment, the file is usually /users/oed/rainb1/rainb1/orby11.stat The program is set to read in 25 columns of data. plot_orby11update(file,n) --> As above, but n = no of days since the last record to be plotted. 2. Orby13 --> currently fitted to the land station. --------------------------------------------------- plot_orby13(file) --> plots the data in the specified file. At the moment, the file is usually /users/oed/rainb3/rainb3/orby13.stat The program is set to read in 16 columns of data. plot_orby11update(file,n) --> As above, but n = no of days since the last record to be plotted. 3. plot_orbyARG(buoy,n) --> currently buoy=orby12, orby15, or orby16 (all rainbuoys) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If no n field is included, n is set to 999 ie, the whole time span of data will be plotted.
