Re: Graphic view of the event in OW

I don't know how many positive reports you submit per week to talk about automation here, but I feel that pre-populating of event times from AOTA falls in the same category as pre-populating observing site coordinates. i.e. this is something that the user should enter manually and ensure the data that is entered correctly when this is done, paying attention to all things such as whether the correct instrumental delays have been applied for example.

Hello Peter and Hristo,
Thanks ... now after thinking, I found it and use it ... but forget that it was possible.
It is necessary to convert the "single" line in several columns, and then to convert the value " 34?¡ã @198?¡ã" in something link that in 2 columns "34¡ã" and "198¡ã".
So ... it is not really simple.
Does somebody know where the "?" character comes from ? And how to disable it ?
Hristo, for the station coordinates ...
The idea was that OccultWatcher fill it (like the other information) during the generation of the report.
A simple alternative is to prepare several SODIS templates (with different stations if necessary).
Other alternative ... for my SharpCap script ... today I copy the information of my EAGLE. But I can modify it, so that the GPS coordinates of the QHY-174GPS camera are save too (if available).
Not necessary in the SODIS "#Latitude: " and "#Longitude: ", but it could be in the Note lines (not "#Comments: ").
Like the GPS log file ... I plane to save it with the other files (in case the timing is not stable).
Concerning the report generation in OccultWatcher ... the AOTO software produces a report.
It seems that the report is needed or used by OccultWatcher reporting ... but I do not see the results in the report.
So it is still necessary to fill it manually (with potential of errors ... forget the D or R before the time).
Is it possible to automate this a little bit more ? ... to have some additional token, so that the AOTA report results can be insert automatically in the SODIS report ?
One point more for the AOTA report ... it calculates al lot of thing ... but why it is still necessary to calculate manually the occultation duration ?
Regards,
Jean-Francois
