Steps for verifying altitudes

  1. Export the altitudes and positions from the VARS_Benthic database
    1. Build vdm-tools
    2. Extract the built archive
    3. cd $VDM_TOOLS_HOME/bin
    4. sh ../scripts/groovy/runQuery.groovy >> allAnnotations.txt
    5. Edit any extraneous log messages of off the top of the file.
  2. Run the altitude test in matlab
    1. Download vdm_altitude_test.m
    2. Make sure matlab has snctools installed
    3. Run the following in matlab:
      file = '/Users/brian/workspace/vdm-tools/src/test/resources/monterey_hrbath.nc';
      sql = '/Users/brian/workspace/vdm-tools/target/vdm-tools-0.1-SNAPSHOT/bin/allAnnotations.txt';
      vdm_altitude_test(sql, file, 'allAltitude-results.txt')
      • The allAltitude-results.txt file will have the deltas of position and depth
