Initial Comments on the Review Process

 

I did the training on the Occultation Review process, "graduated", and have now reviewed 3 batches of 3 (total of 9, with only a single one with multi-chords) in the past week and a half.? What I'm seeing so far is it takes me nearly an hour to do each one (the first several took multi-hours, but I'm software challenged).? I think eventually I'll be able to get that down to between 30 and 45 minutes at best.? So the current rate of positive events (about 3.5 per day for North America) requires several hours per day of volunteer time, not including Norm's time riding herd on it all.? I can understand why they got behind, with only a handful of volunteers and the very quick ramp up in our rate of positives.
?
It is a very manual process--I have a spreadsheet with all the steps on it that I use as a checklist.? It has well over 100 steps, and each with each review I edit it with more detail or new steps depending on what I learn.??

WOW Steve. Thanks for taking that big next step.
That is very generous of you, Rick Bria?
 

Steve:
Yes, big Thanks for offering to help - especially considering the current sizable backlog of events awaiting review. ...and this is the SLOW season! In August thru October the number of positives usually greatly increases. I would considering helping out if sometime the relentless craziness in my life would let up a bit. I currently have 13 positives awaiting review.
John Moore once gave me the info on doing reviews. There's quite a bit to it. He also sent me a video that describes the process step-by-step (tho I think it was a tad out of date), and also a program which processes some of the review data but it would not run for me. It seemed it was compiled to access specific folders and drives - so it was custom set-up just for just his computer.
In any case, Thanks for helping in the sizable backlog.
