The sensor data is saved to a csv files to the SD card in the sensor's Raspberry Pi. After each data collection trip, the data from the SD card should be saved to the archive directory, with a copy saved to the working directory. Get the current water level of Lake Monroe (https://water.weather.gov/ahps2/hydrograph.php?wfo=ind&gage=moni3). This is the MONI3 gague on Salt Creek. The working directory should be opened in a spreadsheet application and edited.

  • Remove any empty records (Lat and or Lon with a value of 0)
  • Add a new column named 'Alt', set the value to the current water level minus the depth. This will give the actual elevation at the bottom of the lake.
  • Save the spreadsheet
  • Save a copy of the spreadsheet as a csv file (this will be used for analysis).
