Camelot

'Tis a silly place.

Repository for one offs and toy models to explore random topics.

BokehMcBokehface

Prototype for figuring out the details of using bokeh server to query a database periodically and stream updates/new data to the plot without having to force a full refresh, to be integrated into the NightWatch project to visualize DCT data.

Further development moved to moved to NightShift

CentroidMcCentroidface

Created to quickly assess centroid/tracking quality for the Lowell 31" at Anderson Mesa.

It turned out that when the sidereal tracking was on, we were getting a big periodic error associated with a belt in the RA drive that needed replacing. This is the code that quickly chugged thru the data to figure that out.

CloudyMcCloudface

Prototype for assessing all sky camera images and coming up with a 'cloudiness' metric.

GOESMcGOESface

Prototype for grabbing the current GOES-16 data and manipulating it ourselves for display, so we don't have to depend on anything else for the DCT & NightWatch.

I Walk the Line

Prototype for figuring out the fine details of loop/queue management with inputs coming from an ActiveMQ broker topic.

RadarLove

Prototype for grabbing and plotting the current NEXRAD radar for a particular radar site. Same raison d'être as GOESMcGOESFace.
