The complete collection of the SMU data is available in a CSV
(comma separated values) format that can be read directly by
(or easily imported into) common database and spreadsheet programs.
See our description page of
the file contents.
The ".csv" file has been compressed into a ".zip" file
-- common file decompression programs such as WinZip for
Windows, or ZipIt for
the Mac knows how to restore it. The file size is reduced over
80% by compression.
And remember:
These data should be considered "provisional" until
otherwise indicated. The data are undergoing several
rounds of QA/QC review and some
of the data may be modified at a subsequent date. We chose to
leave the data hose on full blast whenever possible to familiarize
ourselves with
the operation and maintenance requirements of the RUSS units and
to generate real data for use in developing curricula and lesson
plans. Data gaps were
associated with various RUSS system upgrades and occasional gremlins.
To use:
Download the file Skaneateles_CompleteData.zip (it's
about 64 Kbytes)
Unzip" it using a file decompression utility. Open the
resulting ".csv" file in Excel or your
database program (Note: the 1st row contains the
column titles,
the second row
contains the units). Use the filtering, sorting,
and charting capabilities of your software to explore
the data.
