Sites and times

This page shows who participated and when; and lists some of the problems we encountered.

Sites:

We were able to collect data from the following sites (thanks to everyone who participated!):

Bill Dodd in Ticonderoga sent me this picture of their site:

Dates:

We attempted to collect data at one minuite intervals for consecutive 24hr peridods starting on Dec. 19th and ending on Dec. 29. A local network problem prevented data collection on Dec. 22 and 23. The following lists the dates data was collected, approximate starting times and sites accessed (using the labels above).

Difficulties:

  • One site (IUSW) was on a machine which had a program running which interfered with data collection; no useful data came from that site.
  • The sensitivity level was set too low at one site (IUSS) initially resulting in data that was all the same value. The setting was changed, giving reasonable data for later trials.
  • One site (IUSW2) responded but for reasons which are unclear at this point, no useful data came from that site.
