Measurement Comparison

Normal data flow for a given platform:

  1. PIs -> Data manager -> public data sites (web, ftp); ~ 24-hr turnaround

A slightly modified data flow will accommodate an informally blind comparison exercise. Comparison data flow:

  1. PIs -> Data manager -> platform-specific folders on Comparison ftp site
  2. Gao Chen determines that relevant data are all submitted; emails managers
  3. Data managers -> public data sites (web, ftp); ~ 24-hr turnaround
  4. Gao subsequently posts time-series and x-y plots of comparison data
