Actions come in three categories:
green (benign): displays some information
in the matlab console window
- help - lists some clues about running gautoedit
- find [blk,prf] - click on points in a new PG window to get block,
profile, bin, dday, and date
- show listed - shows time ranges of flagged data (from gautoedit) listed
to disk. (files include "abadbin.asc", "abadprf.asc", "abottom.asc", "abadtimes.asc"
red (active):
- old edit - choose starting time and then go into waterfall editing.
Behavior of waterfall editing dependes on whether you have used "-zapsetup"
in quick_adcp.prl or have otherwise edited "setup.m". These profiles
do not show the effect of the autoedit parameters: it is really like running
the old editing independently. Using "list" saves ascii flag files,
including "badbin.asc", "badprf.asc", and "bottom.asc".
THE FOLLOWING WRITE DIRECTLY TO ASCII FILES:
- del Trange - choose a data type and a (resizeable) window will
come up.You click twice (left, then right) to choose start time and end
time to declare as bad profiles. Profiles immediately get written to
"abadtimes.asc".
- rzap bins - choose your data type and a (resizeable) window
will come up. Drag on a rectangle to zap a rectangle of bad data; all
the bins in the rectangle will immediately get written to "abadbins.asc"
- pzap bins - choose your data type and a (resizeable) window will come up.
Each single click makes the corner of a polygon; double-click on the
last point you want and it will join that to the point you started with
to create a polygon enclosing bad data. All the bins in the rectangle
will immediately get written to "abadbins.asc"
- bottom - identify the bottom with a click, creates line segments with
each additional click; double-click on the last point. These line segments
should identify the BOTTOM (max amplitude) not the deepest good data: the
program will throw away the bottom 15% of the data to account for side-lobe
interference. All the bins along the lind segments will immediately get
written to "abottom.asc".
- list to disk - apply the current parameters to the data and list the
flags to the disk ("abadbin.asc", "abadprf.asc", "abottom.asc")
blue (show data):
- show now - display the currently loaded data with the currently editing
parameters. NOTE: once the data are extracted for a given time range,
they are not re-extracted before viewing. (It is recommended that you restart
gautoedit if you change the database).
- show next - step forward (take the currently visible start dday, add
the "step"), extract the data, and show it.
