- It is now possible to annotate any branch of the Data Preview tree including search tree nodes, devices, and sensors. This is useful for posting status messages in the Data Preview display area. The usual data-related annotations will not appear.
- When creating an annotation, select the search tree node, device, or sensor you want it to apply to. Note that the annotation will also appear on every branch below the one you annotate.
- Select "Shared", and fill out the Data Preview comment section.
- Select an appropriate date range. Note that the date range controls when the annotation appears. It relates to the date range of the data you are viewing. For example if the annotation applied for one day two weeks ago, it will not appear in the Day tab but will appear in the Month tab. The Summary tab shows all applicable annotations regardless of date range.
- To cancel the annotation, either delete it (there is a link to it titled "More" where the annotation appears) or select a Date To in the past.
- Added data preview plots for the inshore profiler in Saanich Inlet.
Miscellaneous
- Sensor names can now be 50 characters long.
- Improved the code that parses the data from the Jason ROV navigation device.
- Improved the driver for the FORCE (Atlantic) RBR tide guage.
- Added a parser for the Hecules ROV navigation device.
oceannetworks.ca website
- The home page underwent a significant redesign. New features include:
- a News Flash section at the top, highlighting the most recent important news story
- Other blocks related to Science, News, etc.
- A Systems Status section was added to display the current status of the three main features of Oceans 2.0.
- These features are:
- "Database" shows whether the database is online
- "Data Acquisition" shows whether data is being acquired from instruments
- "Oceans 2.0" shows whether the Oceans 2.0 website (dmas.uvic.ca) is online
- The indicators have three states (pausing your cursor over the indicator will remind you of the following):
- green circle indicates normal behaviour
- orange triangle indicates slow behaviour
- red "X" indicates that that feature is not working
- Note that the indicators will only be updated when you load or refresh the page.
- These features are:
- An Earthquake Data blocks shows if any significant earthquakes have been registered in the past 24 hours. The definition of a "significant earthquake" is the same definition that is used by the Earthquake Data Dashboard page; earthquakes that are close to southern British Columbia can have a lower magnitude to be considered "significant" compared to remote earthquakes. Clicking on the chevron (">") or the map takes you to the Earthquake Data Dashboard.
- There is an Events section that shows the events that are on today, and events that are coming up. Events include Alerts, Conferences, Expeditions, Meetings and Workshops, and Public Events.
INCISE website
- created a website to promote the INCISE International Submarine Canyon Symposium to be held in Victoria, Canada this July. This was released some time ago but this month we added a page to submit abstracts and have them approved. See http://incise2016.oceannetworks.ca/

- You can now open the Data Preview tree to any location or device or sensor, select the URL, and give that to someone else (for example) who can then automatically open Data Preview at this same location, including which tab you have selected (Summary, Day, or Month).
- Removed devices from the tree that are not currently deployed and added devices that are deployed but that had been missing from the tree.
Miscellaneous
- Improved the way Device IDs are used during dive logging.
...
- "Station" QAQC tests now automatically also apply to all child nodes under those stations. This also applies to all new data for these child nodes even if the station test was created before this new feature was added.
- The new "region" QAQC test results now have priority over "station" test results.
Miscellaneous
- Improvements to file postprocessing infrastructure to reduce data processing backlogs and maintain better near live data, particularly for hydrophone spectrograms.
