/* Data access */
== Data access ==
There is a automated log being genarted by scraping the fits headers generated as files appear on diskby scraping the fits headers:
https://www.saao.ac.za/~sbp/74in_SHW_ObsLogs/
To use method (1)Data can be copied as follow:
** Open a shell on your local PC (Putty if you're using Windows or a bash/tcsh/sh if on Mac or Linux)
** Copy the data using the following command, depending on the telescope: rsync -avzP shoc74in@shoc74in.suth.saao.ac.za:/data/74in/sh?shw/<YYYY>/<MMDD>/*.fits /LocalFilePath rsync -avzP shoc40in@shoc40in.suth.saao.ac.za:/data/40in/sh?/<YYYY>/<MMDD>/*.fits /LocalFilePath ---- where sh? is a wildcard that will point to the correct instrument mounted on the telescope for that night and "/LocalFilePath" is the location on your local machine
---- the password is that for the shoc74in or shoc40in accounts
* NOTE: if the rsync command fails, try it WITHOUT the wildcard (*). Some rsync programs apparently do not support this function.
* ANOTHER NOTE: if the rsync command fails, try it with the data path in quotations, e.g.:
rsync -avzP shoc40inshoc74in@shoc40inshoc74in.suth.saao.ac.za:"/data/40in74in/shdshw/20162024/05030221/*.fits" /LocalFilePath
