Return to Survey Plot page
- This is just an example - page under construction!
- Use the pull down menu to select type of plot and original date:
- Choice of period, Day or Orbit
- Type of plot, i.e. 3DF or Timing
- Start year, month, day.
- REMEMBER TO HIT GO AFTER MAKING YOUR CHOICES
- If you choose orbit, you'll get the first orbit that starts that day
(NOTE TC-2 can have several orbits starting in the same day.)
- Use Previous and Next links to see previous and next plot
- Click the HOUR link to zoom in on the first hour of the plot
- Click on a plot at the appropriate place to zoom in on *THAT* hour.
- When on an hour plot, click anywhere in the plot axis to return to the Day/Orbit plot you came from.
- Clicking to the left of the graph axis goes to Previous plot
- Clicking to the Right of the graph axis goes to Next plot
- The "DSDS gif" link takes you to the DSDS summary gif webpage for that plot (or close too - see bugs).

Known bugs...
- If there isn't an image file you get a broken link.
This could be due to not running our code to generate the plot yet,
Or simply that there is no reason for a plot there (i.e. No TC-2 before launch date).
- If you are looking at an Hourly plot and click the DSDS gifs link you get the 3 hour webplot.
But if you are on a 24hour of Orbit plot you may get the neighbouring orbit plot, rather than the orbit you want. Beware!
