Expo Data Maintenance - Regular tasks

Regular operations

This page is a checklist who are helping the survey data reduction process during and after expo.

All of these things should be checked every week for a couple of months after expo, and then every couple of months. Then again when preparing for the new expo in May.

Data entry TO-DO list

A user-editable online to-do list for data management is now part of the expo online systems. Review this regularly to see what needs doing, and please *delete* jobs that have been done.

Wallets and Surveyscans

2020#00

The #00 wallet directory (e.g. /2020/2020#00/ ) contains orphan files that have been found on the expo laptop in odd places, or have been scanned from bits of notebook found inside other documents. Keep an eye on it and re-file the contents as you discover what they are.

EOL

Run dos2unix to convert any uploaded Windows text files to the format expected by our software. e.g.

cd expofiles/surveyscans
find . -not -type d -exec file "{}" ";" | grep CRLF >crlf.txt
`awk -F: '// {print "dos2unix \"" $1 "\""}' crlf.txt`

Also a good idea to run on all of expofiles once every few years as many GPX exports from phones are a bit variable in how they do EOL characters.

Folk

During prep. for the new expo the folklist will be updated with all the new people expected, but after expo the mugshots and blurb text for the new people will need to be added. See folkupdate for the procedure.
