This repo hosts the utilities used to collect and process data on board. The explanation of the procedure used to collect data is detailed in the handbook.
- Get a unique identifier for yourself. It must be three letters (i.e.: FRA, PIE, CAC)
- Download the entire folder on your laptop. This can be done by clicking the green button “Code” on the top right corner of this page, and then on “Dowload Zip”.
- The file you have downloaded is called “SoleMon_project-main.zip”. Unzip it.
- Inside the “SoleMon_project-main” there is a subfolder called “OnBoard”. Copy this file and paste it on your desktop
- Rename the “OnBoard” file on your desktop as “OnBoard_2024_YOURIDENTIFIER”. For example, “OnBoard_2024_FRA”
- Now you are all set up. Always use your new folder to collect data and follow the rest of the instructions
The procedure reported here is also explained in more detail in the handbook.
Carefully check the version history section to make sure to use the proper files in 2024
- To collect the data, please use the access files in the “access” subfolder. Follow the handbook for the terminology to be used when starting a new access and a new haul
- The “data” subfolder contains information that is needed for the data processing. The only case you need to modify any file here is when you want to run data processing in loop. Check the handbook!
- The R subfolder contains the code to process the data collected. The file you need to open is “workflow_access_v0.R”. IMPORTANT: when you use the script for the first time, make sure to add your working directory
The access file and R code were modified over the years. In 2024, the reference versions are:
- access file for data collection: bio_data_v2024_SOLEMON_template
- R workflow: workflow_access_v2024
- R supplementary functions: functions_access_v2024.R
A detailed history of past versions is coming
