Tools for smooth interactions with the California Delta fish salvage monitoring database.
One present focus is reliably generating data products that are more broadly accessible.
Each day, the /data
directory is populated with .csv
s from an up-to-date "current" (1993 - Present) salvage database file (Salvage_data_FTP.accdb
).
The .csv
files are then used to update the data presentation website (salvage.fish).
Updates are executed via cron
jobs on Github Actions
using the accessor
Docker
software container.
Code for the construction of the accessor
image is available in a separate repo.
Read more details on the methods, including how to run your own data conversions.
