Collect data with Storm Central
Storm Central can also retrieve and display data from GOES Sites using WaterLog’s GOES data
formats. Decoding of both Psuedo-Binary and ASCII (SHEF) formats is fully supported. Setting up a
GOES Site is a simple process.
Log in to Storm Central and navigate to
Sites through the Administration link.
Press the ‘Add’ button at the bottom of
the Sites table to add a new Site. Under
the Site Setup screen for that Site, select
GOES as the Site Type.
Note: In order for Storm Central to accurately
retrieve and decode GOES data, all aspects of
the GOES transmission need to be configured.
The settings must match the data being retrieved
or the data decoding will fail. In addition to
the transmission settings, the number of Data
Columns must match the number of sensors
being retrieved.
Once the settings have been configured,
press the ‘Get Last Tx’ button to
validate the entered information. Storm
Central will attempt to retrieve the last
GOES transmission and decode the
data according settings. Data that is
successfully decoded will be displayed in
the Processed Data section further down
on the page. It will appear in a tabular
format identical to how it will display on
the Site Details page.
Note: Be sure to review this data carefully to
verify it is decoded correctly. If the data in the
Processed Data window is not correct, pressing
the Delete Last Tx button will remove the
displayed information from your Site’s data
storage.
