Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 Training Workshop – Ostende – 1-4 March 2010 Practical work on NEMO Converting files M. Fichaut

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 From ASCII data to XML files Collection of ASCII files ODV files CDI summary CSV file SeaDataNet CDI MIKADO XML CDI files summary_CDI_NEMO.xml Delivered with NEMO Coupling table Export

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 NEMO installation Open the install_nemo_1.4.4_windows.zip file (on the desktop) Unzip it Double click on launcher_nemo.bat Follow the installation procedure Don’t forget to add the NEMO shortcut on your desktop

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 Collection of ASCII files Training data set –6 CTDs raw files under SDN tools/Practical work/data/input files –ASCII files with measured parameters in column –Measured parameters = Depth, Temperature, Salinity, Fluorescence and Dissolved oxygen

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 First step : conversion to ODV with NEMO Run NEMO to convert the files to ODV format. 1.Modify the settings of NEMO Default directories for data set to SDN tools/Practical work/data –Default directories for data set to SDN tools/Practical work/models –Enter your EDMO ID in the field below using the search function (right click) 2.Proceed the 4 steps of NEMO

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 NEMO – File description Choose the type of file (cruise directory, cruise file, …) Browse your PC to input the data files directory Once the file is open in NEMO, have a look to its content Choose file type : Profile Choose the output format : ODV, one unique file for all stations or One file per station Enter the Station header information –there is a specific character string at the end of each Station header : *END* The Data termination indicator is EOF (End of file) Validate the step when description is OK

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 NEMO – Station description Station number is given on line “**Station” Data type is ‘CTD stations’ Time is U.T. Latitude format is NDD MM.mm Longitude format is NDDD.MM.mm Bottom Depth is not available Input all the mandatory fields : station number, time, date, latitude, longitude Use the Test function to verify your input Validate the step when description is OK

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 NEMO – Data description (1) Select the parameter list to use : P011 via P021 Add the parameters : P021 codes are –Depth : AHGT, Temperature : TEMP, Salinity : PSAL, Fluorescence : FVLT, Dissolved oxygen : DOXY, Input the units of the parameters (for salinity, use Dimensionless) –Add a text label to each parameter Set Start and End positions for the parameters Tell NEMO which code is the vertical reference

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 NEMO – Data description (2) Format is mandatory –Describe the output format that you want –%6.1f : means 6 digits total (decimal point included), 1 digit for decimal, f for float (decimal number) –Use the contextual menu ‘Select the format’ for predefined format Use the test fields to validate your input Validate the step when description is OK Save you model in the model directory

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 File conversion You will be asked to give : A dataset reference (can be a cruise name, for example) A name for the output file (all the stations in the same file) or name for the output directory (one station per file) in the SDN tools\Practical work\output directory Have a look to the output files Drag and drop the ODV files in ODV to test their conformity

Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 Practical work on NEMO Generating CDI summary and coupling table M. Fichaut

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 From ASCII data to XML files Collection of ASCII files ODV files CDI summary CSV file SeaDataNet CDI MIKADO XML CDI files summary_CDI_NEMO.xml Delivered with NEMO Coupling table Export

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 Creation of the CDI-SUMMARY and the coupling table Input the information in NEMO SETTINGS –Mapping Click in the box Generate mapping for SeaDataNet download Manager –SeaDataNET CDI summary Unfold the SeaDataNet CDI Summary block Click in the box Generate SeaDataNet CDI summary Fulfill all the mandatory fields (in red), using right click for the Search function

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 Run the file conversion Same file than in the previous exercise You will be asked to give : A dataset reference (can be a cruise name, for example) A name for the CDI summary file A name for the output file (all the stations in the same file) or name for the output directory (one station per file) An output directory prefix (for the coupling table). This prefix will be subtracted from the file name in the mapping table. For example if –output file name = C:\username\NEMO\cruise_name\file_name –and output directory prefix = C:\username\NEMO –file name in the mapping table will be : cruise_name\file_name

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 CDI summary file Convert it to an EXCEL file (for future use by MIKADO) –Open the CDI summary text file with EXCEL (field delimited by tabulations) –Rename the folder into : STATION –Save it under XLS or XLSX format, it will be used later on during the practical work on MIKADO

– Training course – Ostende – 2-6 July 2012 Coupling table Have a look at the coupling table –Menu : Coupling_table>Edit –It gives the link between the LOCAL_CDI_ID and the file in which the LOCAL_CDI_ID will be found by the download manager of SeaDataNet –MODUS = 1 if the LOCAL_CDI_ID is in a mono-station file –MODUS = 3 if the LOCAL_CDI_ID is in a multi-station file –One LOCAL_CDI_ID and one format is unique in the coupling table –Add and delete records Export the coupling table in a flat file –Menu : Coupling_table>Export –Have a look at the flat coupling.txt file
