Atmospheric Observatory
Live data
A lot of the Atmospheric Observatory data is coming directly from the fieldsite and is usually, at most, a few minutes old.

Any new live data is copied from labserver to the ITS disk using the Dependency Perl Code (DPC), which is installed in /home/sws09a/public_html/cgi-bin/update. They're may be a other ways of doing this, but this was quick and an easy for easy for Marc to do and works. A full list of the files that are copied can be seen at the Dependency Perl Code web interface for this data. The DPC is run through a cron job on labserver every night.
