Overview

OCTOPUS is a multiformat checker, splitter and converter tool for SeaDataNet (SDN) formats. It is a unique and ergonomic tool for many format conversions.

The following conversions are possible with OCTOPUS:

  • Non SDN MedAtlas to SDN MedAtlas
  • Non SDN MedAtlas to SDN ODV
  • Non SDN MedAtlas to SDN NetCDF
  • Non SDN NetCDF Shipboard ADCP to SDN NetCDF
  • SDN MedAtlas to SDN ODV
  • SDN MedAtlas to SDN NetCDF
  • SDN ODV to SDN NetCDF
  • SDN NetCDF to SDN ODV

And for marine geophysical data:

  • MGDv81 to SDN ODV
  • MGDv98 to SDN ODV

OCTOPUS also allows:

  • to split a multistation file into monostation ones
  • to extract 1 to n stations from a multistation file and export them into another multistation file or several monostation ones
  • to check the compliance of SDN MedAtlas, SDN ODV, SDN NetCDF and HFRadar NetCDF formats
  • to check the compliance of ODV variant SDN formats for biology, microlitter and flow cytometry
  • to convert EGO glider files to SDN netCDF (CFPoint) format
  • to generate the SDN coupling table

Requirements, Supported Environments, Installation

Requirements

Octopus is written in Java.

Octopus is available in 2 versions:

  • a "classic" version, without Java. It requires java 1.8.0_131 or greater (but lower than 1.9) already installed in the system.
  • a "standalone" version, with Java 1.8.0_201 bundled into it (located in the octopus/jre directory).

Supported Environments

The standalone version version doesn't require Java.

Octopus is available for multiple platforms: Windows, Linux. 32 bits platforms are not supported.

Installation

Download the Octopus software from SeaDataNet portal.

Simply choose the version according to your system (Linux/Windows), and your Java configuration ("classic", "standalone"). Copy the zip file on your computer and unzip it. The change log is available in OCTOPUS menu help> about

Get started

OCTOPUS can be used in interactive mode or in batch mode.

For settings and details of all other available functions, please refer to the user manual.
