9. Dynamic Generation of Plots
Graphs generated on demand on server:
From series of daily results files
Thousands of small files
Or cumulative results file, updated daily
One larger file, including time as coordinate variable
Or some compromise (e.g. annual to date)
Allow User Selection of:
Instrument(s), Channel(s) – Allow comparisons?
Start, End Date
Standard Radiances
Time series Plots or Tables
of Daily results or Smoothed results
All GPRCs could use same code
If all results files have same format
Allow comparisons of algorithms?
