Week 1 09/10/2024


Summary: This week, our goal was to successfully access the Raspberry Pi and demonstrate specific tasks related to file management and system understanding.

Accomplishments:


  1. Group meeting has been done.


To-Do: Successfully logged into the Raspberry Pi, demonstrating the ability to establish a connection. Understood the process of connecting to the Raspberry Pi and related it to the instructional link provided. Identified the folders containing the 'pi' folder within the Raspberry Pi directory structure. Demonstrated the ability to copy and move files from 'root/home/pi' to the new system.

  1. New images will be viewed to see if the crontab issue has been resolved.


Week 2 09/12/2024


Summary: This week focused on advancing the Kopernik project, specifically tasks related to the "pi" folder. The group conducted a detailed meeting to discuss the week's objectives, primarily centering on working with the system scripts. The key activities included exploring the system to locate the "schedule_all.sh" script, attempting to execute it, and investigating the integration and access of "wp_bot_sav.py." Despite facing challenges with the script's execution, valuable progress was made in familiarizing with the system and identifying potential issues for further resolution.


Accomplishments:

  1. Group meeting has been done.

Conducted a group meeting to discuss the tasks for the week and to align on the approach for working with the scripts. Explored the system to locate the "pi" folder and attempted to find the "schedule_all.sh" script. Attempted to run the "schedule_all.sh" script to ensure proper execution. Investigated how to access "wp_bot_sav.py" as part of the tasks. Although initial attempts to run the script(schedule_all.sh and schedule_satellite.sh) were unsuccessful(no directory found error in both scripts), progress was made in understanding the system and identifying potential issues.

Found the no directory found issue in the scripts. It was because we put the pi folder into new system so in the script the directories should be fixed.


Week 3 09/20/2024


Summary: 

   - Conducted research on Gpredict vs Predict, focusing on platform differences, user interfaces, and satellite tracking capabilities.
   - Tested using schedule_all.sh with Gpredict, noting that the GUI is required for certain operations when working over SSH.
   - Continued exploring Selenium for task automation and integration with other tools.

Accomplishments: 

   - Completed detailed comparison research between Gpredict and Predict for satellite tracking needs.
   - Successfully executed schedule_all.sh with Gpredict, identified that GUI support is required for full functionality.

To-Do: 

   - Investigate methods for running Gpredict via SSH with screen sharing to bypass GUI limitations.(optional)
   - Develop on wx2 image file processing scripts, focusing on optimizing file handling and data output. Get familirazed with the image processing scripts
   - Finalize Selenium automation scripts for further testing and integration in the upcoming week.

Week 5 10/14/2024

Summary: 

-This week, we debugged and refined key scripts involved in automating the processing and uploading of satellite weather data. After testing, the receive_and_process_satellite.sh script successfully captured and processed satellite data, and updates were made to improve file management and web integration.

Accomplishments: 

 Updated receive_and_process_satellite.sh: Optimized satellite data capture and image generation, ensuring wxtoimg functions correctly.

Refined dir_script.sh: Improved the execution of file cleanup, image prep, and data uploads by managing subprocesses efficiently.

Enhanced prep_web_images.py: Debugged the image replacement process and added file size checks to avoid processing incomplete files.

Modified remove_old_files.py: Ensured proper deletion of files older than 7 days with added error notifications.

To-Do: 

-Continue testing for stability and performance.
-Optimize satellite data capture in receive_and_process_satellite.sh.
-Document script changes for future reference.
-Implement performance tracking for data processing success rates.
