Data processing

There are several steps for data processing following a mission and they fall into two main categories: (1) glider operational and environmental data processing and (2) passive acoustic data processing.

Glider operational and environmental data processing

These data processing steps will generally follow the Post-mission processing steps outlined in the agate documentation.

Passive acoustic data processing

See excellent protocols and information on the NMFS PAM Glider site: Analysis Methods > Acoustic Data Pre-Processing

Specifically, the Seaglider - WISPR instructions will apply to the PIFSC Seagliders.
