Abstract
Online repositories host data collected for research purposes in multiple formats to align with the researchers’ current data format. MIT’s Madrigal Repository for upper atmospheric sciences has many sub-repositories that store data on specific regions of research. The CEDAR subrepository hosts some GNSS scintillation data, similar to data collected by Illinois Institute of Technology receivers in Poker Flat, Alaska. Observing the transition and the approaching peak of the 25th sun cycle will generate new data on upper atmospheric phenomena that will be stored on the server. To accommodate for the extra data, the existing data needs to be offloaded to the CEDAR repository.
This project focuses on researching the compatibility of existing IIT data with CEDAR formats and outlining the locations on the server to offload relevant data. Linux was utilized to search for the file locations from the backend of the server. Since the Space Weather Lab website can be used to request collected server data, php and HTML were used to analyze the front end of the lab website in phpMyAdmin to determine file locations. Data locations were obtained as file paths after front-end analysis and will be used to offload the relevant datafiles.
