Time to display the data that is being collected! #23

I frequently have requests that require sharing AguaClara performance data. The post visualize hasn't ever worked and it is frustrating to have all of this great data that operators have collected and not be able to show it.

Yesterday I received a request from Nicaragua and the Swiss Development Cooperation to provide information about the maximum turbidity that the AguaClara plants can treat. It would have been so helpful to be able to show them data online. But the online data doesn't allow any browsing backwards in time.

Can you begin displaying the turbidity data in the next week or two? If not, is there something wrong with the approach that you are using? The first version of data display was created in much less time than POST has been working to create the second generation.

[Here] (https://fusiontables.google.com/DataSource?docid=14iS92Ep_8pfzwih-Hw-mn2o38_Mp31HOJ2BnI6rQ#card:id=2) this has always been available and I've shared it liberally. You can download csv, see back in time, compare data, etc... Is that what you're looking for?

I am not able to adjust the time period that is displayed. There is a control at the bottom of the chart that if I touch it all of the data disappears and I need to close the browser window and reconnect to recover. We need a graph that can be browsed by the public.

Huh - this was working a year ago when I checked it last... pretty surprising that a Google product would fail like that! But I just tried, and indeed neither Safari, Chrome, nor Firefox worked... :( This hadn't been a priority before because I had thought this chart was available. We can make this a priority. @AguaClara/post-cornell what are your thoughts on the fastest way to implement an interactive time series? It seems D3 has been causing headaches. Perhaps we should stick with the simpler solution, such as plot.ly. @monroews can you check out that example and confirm that is what you want? And which metrics would you like to show on it? Just all the turbidity measures?

I'd like time series with range slider. Ideally you could select which of the turbidity data (raw, settled, filtered) is displayed.
