WARN (Web-enabled Awareness Research Network)
- Event Maintenance was added to the Tools menu. This feature allows you to define events that will be logged and will trigger some action. An example of an event is when a sensor reading goes above a defined threshold.
- Added the ability to subscribe to events (all types of events, not just WARN events) so that an e-mail will be sent to you when the event occurs. This is only useful for WARN for test purposes. All e-mails are logged in the Event Subscription Log tab. At this time it is possible to define an event that indicates that a tsunami was detected at any of the WARN tsunami detection instruments. The final piece that will allow you to define an event that will be triggered only after a tsunami has been detected at three locations within a certain time will be added soon.
- Made significant progress in the development of a prototype iPhone app to warn users of an impending earthquake or tsunami.
- Added the following instruments to the WARN tsunami detection network. This brings the total tsunami detection instruments to 6.The new instruments have the usual 11 WARN derived sensors.
- BPR (Bottom Pressure Recorded) 10703 at Endeavour (Main Endeavour Field)
- BPR 22791 at Cascadia Basin
- CTD (Conductivity Temperature Depth) 23027 at Barkley Upper Slope

Data Products
- All scalar data products now give a QAQC (quality) flag of 6 when resampling is used and there are less than 70% of good samples available in a given resample period. This flag used to be 4 in this case but that may have implied that the data was bad rather than missing.
Internal Features
- Annotations uploaded using a file now have the option of declaring them reviewed and shareable immediately.
- Implemented the framework to allow plots of large amounts of data (eg. over 1 year) to display quickly by using the Cassandra database (this is just the framework; it is not being used yet).
- Implemented a consistent infrastructure that will eventually allow NetCDF type data to be searched using OPeNDAP.
- Images from the VENUS 3D camera are now being archived.
- Implemented a scheduled job to retrieve data from the instruments on the Spirit of Vancouver Island ferry, via FTP.
- Modified the Network Console to make it easier to add new observatories and modify existing ones. This will be used to "create" the new FORCE observatory described above.

Data Products
- Added "pressure VPS" data (ie. pressure from the CTD on the VPS in order to establish depth) to the data products for the SBE63 dissolved oxygen sensor on the VPS (Vertical Profile System).
- Modified all data products for all mobile devices to include whatever mobile position data is available for each reading (latitude, longitude, depth/altitude, pitch, roll, heading). This applies to all mobile devices such as Buoy Profile System (ie. Saanich Inlet Profiler), Vertical Profile System (ie. Barkley Upper Slope Profiler), ferry instruments, gliders, ROVs, ice buoys, etc.
- Improved profile plots and added daily inshore profile plots to the website.
- Initial changes to ADCP plots to make them more consistent across networks. Eg. changed intensity plots from compensated backscatter to RSSI, smarter ranges, removed extra time stamps, etc.
- Implemented standardized spectrogram data products for all hydrophones, enables posting live data to the website (will be brought online mid-september pending military driver changes).
- Implemented a tool to bulk import annotations. This will enable us to import libraries of hydrophone annotations, among other applications.
- Added clean option for quick plots.
- Finalized Kongsberg Rotary sonar data products, including handling of big files, speed and plotting improvements.
