00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:02.840
Welcome to OPUS Projects Training.

00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:06.434
In this module we will examine the Project managers page

00:00:06.495 --> 00:00:10.131
and highlight all the major project level functions that are

00:00:10.192 --> 00:00:10.919
found there.

00:00:11.960 --> 00:00:15.583
The Project Managers page is also the central location from

00:00:15.645 --> 00:00:18.654
which one can branch out to the session pages and

00:00:18.715 --> 00:00:19.759
occupation pages.

00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:26.894
Please note the current version of OPUS Projects may look

00:00:26.945 --> 00:00:29.839
slightly different than the screens in this presentation.

00:00:30.360 --> 00:00:33.080
The functionality generally remains the same.

00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:38.000
This is the overall Managers page.

00:00:38.040 --> 00:00:41.137
It consists of the project controls and map in its

00:00:41.199 --> 00:00:44.296
upper part and the Marks and Sessions table in its

00:00:44.358 --> 00:00:45.039
lower part.

00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:48.539
We will focus only on the project controls and map

00:00:48.598 --> 00:00:49.480
in this module.

00:00:52.400 --> 00:00:55.807
The backdrop map type can be changed from its default

00:00:55.871 --> 00:00:57.800
view to several other choices.

00:00:58.400 --> 00:01:02.520
Click the stacked layer icon to choose from several options.

00:01:05.160 --> 00:01:07.360
For example, the World Imagery option.

00:01:09.800 --> 00:01:13.362
You can choose to zoom to show all the project

00:01:13.440 --> 00:01:17.158
marks only or zoom to show all the project Marks

00:01:17.235 --> 00:01:18.319
and the CORS.

00:01:18.800 --> 00:01:21.640
This will also include the distant CORS.

00:01:24.360 --> 00:01:27.836
Along the top edge is the symbolic legend which shows

00:01:27.901 --> 00:01:31.049
most of the common symbolism in a project with a

00:01:31.115 --> 00:01:33.279
brief notation of their meanings.

00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:39.705
Along the left side is the controls column and along

00:01:39.779 --> 00:01:43.050
the right side are the list of Marks and the

00:01:43.124 --> 00:01:45.280
list of CORS in the project.

00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:50.213
These lists will update as marks or CORS are added

00:01:50.278 --> 00:01:52.279
to or removed from the project.

00:01:55.320 --> 00:01:59.189
The Add Marks link opens the OPUS upload page in

00:01:59.269 --> 00:02:00.639
this same window.

00:02:01.000 --> 00:02:02.360
It's a convenience link.

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:04.400
There is no added functionality.

00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:11.198
The Add Delete CORS link opens a dynamic selection box

00:02:11.271 --> 00:02:14.833
with a map showing which CORS are already in the

00:02:14.906 --> 00:02:17.960
project and also which CORS can be added.

00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:23.329
You can also delete a CORS from this same selection

00:02:23.399 --> 00:02:23.680
box.

00:02:24.440 --> 00:02:27.841
Adding or deleting can be done by clicking a CORS

00:02:27.909 --> 00:02:31.038
and choosing to add or delete or by typing its

00:02:31.106 --> 00:02:33.895
4 character ID into the To be added or to

00:02:33.963 --> 00:02:35.120
be deleted lists.

00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:39.754
Note the color-coded symbols with green denoting those CORS with

00:02:39.815 --> 00:02:41.640
more than seven years of data.

00:02:42.200 --> 00:02:44.080
These are the recommended choices.

00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:47.560
You can choose orange or yellow if needed.

00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.540
The red symbols denote CORS with less than three years

00:02:52.605 --> 00:02:53.120
of data.

00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:56.200
These CORS should be avoided if possible.

00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:05.880
The project preferences include five tabs with grouped functions.

00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:11.532
The project title, project ID, keywords, and CC Manager e-mail

00:03:11.605 --> 00:03:13.360
controls are shown here.

00:03:14.320 --> 00:03:21.850
Data and solution quality threshold controls, data processing, default controls,

00:03:21.944 --> 00:03:28.439
session definition controls, and Mark colocation definition controls.

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.276
The Project List button will send a list of all

00:03:34.339 --> 00:03:38.419
projects created by the project manager to the project manager's

00:03:38.483 --> 00:03:39.439
e-mail address.

00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:43.315
If you cannot recall or you've lost your keywords, this

00:03:43.373 --> 00:03:44.999
is an extremely useful tool.

00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:52.960
Solutions and adjustments sometimes are misnamed or no longer needed.

00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:57.473
Use the Solutions button to rename or delete a session,

00:03:57.547 --> 00:04:01.917
confirm the changes, then click the Apply Changes and close

00:04:01.991 --> 00:04:04.879
button or cancel out by clicking the X.

00:04:06.720 --> 00:04:10.180
Note that the RINEX data files for the occupations within

00:04:10.240 --> 00:04:13.342
a session or adjustment will not be removed from the

00:04:13.402 --> 00:04:13.879
project.

00:04:14.320 --> 00:04:17.425
There are other controls within OPUS Projects for that action

00:04:17.476 --> 00:04:18.240
if it's needed.

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:23.744
If you plan to submit a project to NGS for

00:04:23.816 --> 00:04:27.560
publication, then a project tracking ID is required.

00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.149
To obtain a project Tracking ID from NGS, a project

00:04:32.217 --> 00:04:34.839
request must be submitted and approved.

00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:39.592
You can continue with your project using the 0000 default

00:04:39.665 --> 00:04:42.839
while you wait for your project tracking ID.

00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:49.228
As a project receives data files and as processing and

00:04:49.298 --> 00:04:53.577
adjustment steps take place, many files are produced and sent

00:04:53.647 --> 00:04:54.840
to you by e-mail.

00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:58.912
The Show File button acts as a convenient place from

00:04:58.971 --> 00:05:02.383
which these files can be viewed without needing access to

00:05:02.443 --> 00:05:03.640
your e-mail account.

00:05:04.400 --> 00:05:07.969
There are three pull down lists that dynamically update as

00:05:08.030 --> 00:05:10.000
files are added to your project.

00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:14.466
Select the specific file by limiting file types from left

00:05:14.528 --> 00:05:17.079
to right using the three pull down lists.

00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:23.869
When you have a question about OPUS Projects, there's an

00:05:23.921 --> 00:05:26.923
e-mail function to send your question to the OPUS project

00:05:26.976 --> 00:05:27.239
team.

00:05:28.280 --> 00:05:31.080
Some attachments can be selected if they're relevant.

00:05:31.880 --> 00:05:35.560
The OPUS project team will review your e-mail and reply.

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:39.271
If you do not receive a prompt reply within a

00:05:39.342 --> 00:05:42.959
day, then please contact your regional NGS advisor.

00:05:45.000 --> 00:05:47.578
If you plan to submit a project to NGS for

00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:51.199
publication, a set of five description files are required.

00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:55.524
It is recommended that these 5 files be uploaded after

00:05:55.593 --> 00:06:00.213
the occupation files are submitted but before session processing or

00:06:00.282 --> 00:06:01.800
adjustment take place.

00:06:02.880 --> 00:06:05.040
Read the important note for details.

00:06:08.440 --> 00:06:10.826
If you plan to submit a project to NGS for

00:06:10.883 --> 00:06:13.440
publication, a set of field logs is required.

00:06:14.200 --> 00:06:16.996
This file can be a zip or a multi page

00:06:17.069 --> 00:06:20.160
PDF of all the field logs in your project.

00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:26.298
The data sheets for marks in the NGS database sometimes

00:06:26.363 --> 00:06:28.120
receive updates or changes.

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:33.439
Generally speaking, it is recommended that the Refresh PID Information

00:06:33.506 --> 00:06:38.013
button be activated after the occupation files and description files

00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:42.719
are submitted, but before session processing or adjustment take place.

00:06:43.560 --> 00:06:46.160
Read the notification inside the box.

00:06:49.760 --> 00:06:55.360
Some projects may include GNSS vectors in a GVX format.

00:06:55.720 --> 00:06:58.714
If that is the case, use this box to browse

00:06:58.784 --> 00:07:01.640
for and select which GVX files to upload.

00:07:02.320 --> 00:07:06.048
It is recommended that these GVX files be uploaded after

00:07:06.115 --> 00:07:10.643
the occupation files and description files are submitted, but before

00:07:10.710 --> 00:07:13.639
session processing or adjustment take place.

00:07:16.400 --> 00:07:19.834
The Setup Adjustment dialogue box has too many options to

00:07:19.894 --> 00:07:21.160
discuss at this time.

00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:24.160
Please view the separate module on adjustment.

00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:29.502
The adjustments take place after the individual sessions have been

00:07:29.558 --> 00:07:30.119
processed.

00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:36.855
The Export Adjustments button sends a set of results in

00:07:36.931 --> 00:07:40.239
the selected format to the manager's e-mail.

00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:45.304
Choose the specific adjustment and the desired format, or click

00:07:45.372 --> 00:07:47.200
the X button to cancel out.

00:07:49.520 --> 00:07:51.972
If you plan to submit a project to the NGS

00:07:52.030 --> 00:07:54.600
for publication, Project Report is required.

00:07:55.560 --> 00:07:59.455
The NGS provides a sample project report to facilitate and

00:07:59.522 --> 00:08:00.999
guide your submission.

00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:07.464
If you plan to submit a project to the NGS

00:08:07.517 --> 00:08:11.172
for publication, the project must be checked for overall completeness

00:08:11.225 --> 00:08:13.079
using the Review and Submit button.

00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:17.013
The box will show pink highlights for items that are

00:08:17.066 --> 00:08:18.240
missing or incomplete.

00:08:19.080 --> 00:08:22.942
When no pink highlights are shown, this Submit for Publication

00:08:23.004 --> 00:08:26.119
button will turn from grayed out to active status.

00:08:29.200 --> 00:08:31.758
The project can be left on the NGS servers for

00:08:31.814 --> 00:08:32.760
a period of time.

00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:36.160
Projects should be harvested for their relevant files.

00:08:36.360 --> 00:08:39.067
Most of these were sent by e-mail already and the

00:08:39.123 --> 00:08:40.559
project should be deleted.

00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.294
Please delete any temporary projects or flawed projects to avoid

00:08:45.354 --> 00:08:46.679
clutter and confusion.

00:08:48.200 --> 00:08:49.960
Note the important box.

00:08:50.400 --> 00:08:53.320
The OK button is the confirming action.

00:08:53.840 --> 00:08:56.766
The delete will be immediate and final and there is

00:08:56.824 --> 00:08:57.799
no undo function.

00:08:59.760 --> 00:09:01.320
This is the end of the module.

00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:03.531
I hope you have found it helpful and thank you

00:09:03.579 --> 00:09:04.239
for listening.
