Tools to import gravity vectors, normal routes and deviation cells from CSV files into a PostGIS database. Also includes tools for combining AIS data with weather data from thredds.met.no.

Requirements:

• Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition (only required to compile from source)
• .NET Core 3.1 SDK (or newer)

When using a compiled program, DatabaseImport can be executed as follows: $ dotnet run GravityVectorToolkit.Tools.DatabaseImport.exe --connectionstring <str> --gv-merged-path <path> --normal-route-path <path> [--deviation-cells-path <path>]

DatabaseImport can also be run directly from source. Simply cd into the GravityVectorToolkit.Tools.DatabaseImport project folder and run:

$ dotnet build 
$ dotnet run --connectionstring <str> --gv-merged-path <path> --normal-route-path <path> [--deviation-cells-path <path>]

When using Visual Studio, GVTK can be executed by running the project GravityVectorToolkit.Tools.DatabaseImport. However, the command line arguments must be entered into launchSettings.json or added to the application arguments text box in the project properties view.

Available options:

When using a compiled program, AisCombine can be executed as follows: $ dotnet run GravityVectorToolkit.Tools.AisCombine.exe

AisCombine reads its settings from a configuration file called settings.json. Here is an example settings.json file:

{
   "AisSourceDirectory":"/path/to/inputdir",
   "AisDestinationDirectory":"/path/to/outputdir",
   "WeatherDbPath":"/path/to/weather-database.sqlite",
   "MaxParallellism":8,
   "AssumeNoEpochCollissions":true,
   "TimestampColumnName":"date_time_utc",
   "LatitudeColumnName":"lat",
   "LongitudeColumnName":"lon",
   "CalculateClosest":true,
   "GeohashMatchPrecision":5,
   "PrecisionSearchLimit":3
}
