13.1 Exporting Data
Data retrieved from a weather station can be exported to a file for further data
processing. From VisualWeather’s main menu, select Tools | Export Data.
Highlight the desired weather station name from the list of Current or Past
Weather Stations. The names of the data tables associated with the selected
weather station will be displayed.
Select the desired table to be exported in the Select a Data Table list. Next
select the range of data to be exported using the Starting at and Ending at
fields.
By default, exported data will be saved in the <working directory>\Export
folder with a name of <station name>.dat (the working directory is the
directory specified in the install and station name is the name of the weather
station). A different directory can be selected by clicking the Browse button.
Click the Export button to begin exporting the data.
Data is exported in Campbell Scientific’s TOACI1 format (an ASCII comma-
separated format with headings). The exported data can be imported into a
spreadsheet or other software for further data processing.
