NEODC Data Delivery

This page documents the procedure to follow when delivering data to NEODC.

First, we need to have some data to send - these should be datasets that are 'completed'.

Work in progress'''

1. Prepare the relevant datasets:
   1. Make sure everything is where it should be! (see this wiki page? for the layout)
   2. Check everything is there (PDF logsheet, delivery directories, scripts, applanix/rinex data)
   3. Add a copy of the relevant trac ticket(s) - save these as html (including images) as arsf_trac_ticket_XXX.html and put in the admin/ subdir.
   4. Delete the contents of the lev1/ subdirectory, where these are duplicates of the delivery directory.
2. Scan the filesystem for any 'bad' things and fix them:
   1. delete any unnecessary files - backups of DEMs that weren't used, temp files created by gedit (~ at end of filename), etc
   2. Remove executable bit on all files (except bin/az* and the run[aceh] scripts) -> find -type f -not -wholename '*bin/az*' -and -not -regex '.*/run[aceh]/.*sh' -and -perm /a=x -exec chmod a-x {} \;
   3. Find all files/dirs with unusual characters (space, brackets, etc) - use find -regex '.*[^-0-9a-zA-Z/._].*' | ~arsf/usr/bin/fix_naughty_chars.py to give suggested commands, but check first
   4. Give everyone read permissions (and execute if it has user execute) for the current directory and below - chmod -R a+rX .
3. Note on ticket that it's been archived/sent to neodc and close the ticket.
