Installation
============

You can install the package in a python (virtual) environment with:

.. code-block:: zsh

    pip install dtscalibration

Or the development version directly from GitHub

.. code-block:: zsh

    pip install https://github.com/dtscalibration/python-dts-calibration/zipball/main --upgrade

The package is also available on conda-forge. Install it in a conda or mamba environment with:

.. code-block:: sh

    conda install -c conda-forge dtscalibration

Package features
================
DTS measures temperature by calibrating backscatter measurements to sections with a known temperature. DTS devices provide a simple interface to perform a limited calibration. Re-calibrating your measurements with this Python package gives you better temperature estimates and additional options.

* Advanced calibration routine
   * Supports `single `_- and `double-ended `_ setups
   * Compute uncertainty of the calibrated temperature
   * All measurements are used to estimate parameter values that are constant over time.
   * Weighted least-squares calibration
   * `Fixing parameters to a previously determined value `_
   * `(Asymmetric) step loss correction `_ so that fiber connectors can be used instead of welds/splices.
   * `Matching temperature sections `_ to support J-configurations
* Dynamic reference section definition
* Tools for merging and aligning double-ended setups
* Data formats of most manufacturers are supported

Devices currently supported
===========================
* Silixa Ltd.: **Ultima** & **XT-DTS** .xml files *(up to version 8.1)*
* Sensornet Ltd.: **Oryx**, **Halo** & **Sentinel** .ddf files
* AP Sensing: **N4386B** .xml files *(single ended only)*
* SensorTran: **SensorTran 5100** .dat binary files *(single ended only)*

Documentation
=============

* A full calibration procedure for single-ended setups is presented in notebook `07Calibrate_single_ended.ipynb `_ and for double-ended setups in `08Calibrate_double_ended.ipynb `_.
* Documentation at `readthedocs `_.
* Example notebooks (`./docs/notebooks`) that work within the browser can be viewed `here `_.

How to cite
===========
The following article explains and discusses the calibration procedure:

Cite the specific implementation / repository via Zenodo:

1. Check the version of `dtscalibration` that is used in your Python console with:

    >>> # The following line introduces the .dts accessor for xarray datasets
    >>> import dtscalibration  # noqa: E401
    >>> dtscalibration.__version__
    '3.0.1'
2. Go to `Zenodo `_ and follow the link to the version of interest.
3. The citation is found on the bottom right of the page.
