Tracker firmware: write CSV directly? #42

Closed takluyver closed 5 years ago

takluyver commented 5 years ago

The tracker firmware currently writes each field (latitude, longitude, datetime...) into a separate file, separating values with underscores. When we pull this off, I have reprocessed it into CSVs for convenience. I think it should be possible to write CSV files directly, which would simplify getting and using the data.

Definitly. (I had the same Idea...) Can you specify the format the tracker should write to the CSV file?

takluyver commented 5 years ago

I would use the format I converted the data to for scoring. I converted the timestamp to ISO 8601 format (like 2018-08-27T12:31:01Z) and kept the other 4 fields it recorded as they were.

Done in 69401a5, tested on the tracker.
