00:00:01.270 --> 00:00:05.168
In this video, we'll walk
through some of the charting

82255e8f-4720-48e1-a746-1228cc0682cb-1
00:00:05.168 --> 00:00:09.420
features of the CRMS website.
There are many different ways

82255e8f-4720-48e1-a746-1228cc0682cb-2
00:00:09.420 --> 00:00:13.815
you can build charts. We won't
go through all of them, but we

82255e8f-4720-48e1-a746-1228cc0682cb-3
00:00:13.815 --> 00:00:17.430
will look at some of the major
jumping off points.

2d499b67-db7a-4474-99a6-33295d988d25-0
00:00:18.170 --> 00:00:20.500
From the home page, select the
data icon.

1be9c420-c7b2-40e3-afc4-76554a0faca0-0
00:00:21.500 --> 00:00:23.750
First, we'll look at the
charting tab.

40fd4898-0117-412e-8c04-999db8b9b9f4-0
00:00:25.210 --> 00:00:29.305
This tab is mostly used for
building a chart with a single

40fd4898-0117-412e-8c04-999db8b9b9f4-1
00:00:29.305 --> 00:00:33.610
parameter for either one single
station or multiple stations.

5eb94a69-2b95-4aea-903c-5894dd412d52-0
00:00:34.780 --> 00:00:36.530
Let's do a hydro example.

9aff9257-111b-4d7b-b79f-8edeed75f900-0
00:00:37.490 --> 00:00:38.840
We'll do water level.

ca4e2c59-1217-4485-a30e-bd195b2be7d3-0
00:00:40.220 --> 00:00:43.377
If you click the hydro
surrogates info link, you can

ca4e2c59-1217-4485-a30e-bd195b2be7d3-1
00:00:43.377 --> 00:00:46.535
learn more about how the CRMS
network optimized data

ca4e2c59-1217-4485-a30e-bd195b2be7d3-2
00:00:46.535 --> 00:00:50.050
collection by implementing
surrogate hydrologic recorders.

8b8de537-77d8-4125-bd5a-5fcd57b6210f-0
00:00:51.410 --> 00:00:54.620
To build this water level chart,
let's first select a scale.

55a9c3e7-ff58-43f5-bcde-fcf49e56261b-0
00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:57.290
Let's do multistation.

09819ff9-68bf-430a-a8ba-cefa023b24e7-0
00:00:58.450 --> 00:01:02.698
Then we'll enter a date range
scattered throughout the

09819ff9-68bf-430a-a8ba-cefa023b24e7-1
00:01:02.698 --> 00:01:07.256
website, you'll see these
informational bubbles, which you

09819ff9-68bf-430a-a8ba-cefa023b24e7-2
00:01:07.256 --> 00:01:12.277
can click on. This one gives you
information about how the scale

09819ff9-68bf-430a-a8ba-cefa023b24e7-3
00:01:12.277 --> 00:01:13.900
changes based on the.

9a7d6875-27c2-4529-939d-27cda04aabe6-0
00:01:14.500 --> 00:01:16.270
Date range input.

550b474e-24d3-4d05-9075-9b07871f0d3e-0
00:01:18.110 --> 00:01:20.520
Once you've input the dates,
apply date filter.

1934f3e2-8a75-47f1-82eb-3ee129b37213-0
00:01:21.490 --> 00:01:25.854
Scrolling down, you have a few
options for how to filter the

1934f3e2-8a75-47f1-82eb-3ee129b37213-1
00:01:25.854 --> 00:01:30.218
stations. You can filter by
basin or project or just come in

1934f3e2-8a75-47f1-82eb-3ee129b37213-2
00:01:30.218 --> 00:01:34.654
here and select the stations
that you'd like to apply. If you

1934f3e2-8a75-47f1-82eb-3ee129b37213-3
00:01:34.654 --> 00:01:38.876
don't know the numbers of the
station, you can use the map

1934f3e2-8a75-47f1-82eb-3ee129b37213-4
00:01:38.876 --> 00:01:39.520
selector.

40cac974-68c0-4bac-b62b-a5b89f2980d9-0
00:01:40.380 --> 00:01:44.330
And just draw box around the
area that you're interested in.

4ba4d4fe-a78d-4ea3-a24c-82ab56d3ce64-0
00:01:45.790 --> 00:01:50.520
Those stations will appear here
and you can submit request.

c112977b-d9b8-4aab-9b72-3197102132ce-0
00:01:51.810 --> 00:01:55.810
This action brings up the chart
that you've requested.

a8cd4ed9-db6e-473c-8531-d0a57c78b08b-0
00:01:56.660 --> 00:02:00.217
Which you can right click to
save. Also, if you'd like the

a8cd4ed9-db6e-473c-8531-d0a57c78b08b-1
00:02:00.217 --> 00:02:03.533
data that the chart was
generated from, there's a data

a8cd4ed9-db6e-473c-8531-d0a57c78b08b-2
00:02:03.533 --> 00:02:07.030

feb85874-7a4a-41e1-862f-efa29454df0b-0
00:02:07.990 --> 00:02:12.713
At the bottom of this page is a
suggested data citation for your

feb85874-7a4a-41e1-862f-efa29454df0b-1
00:02:12.713 --> 00:02:16.928
use. Most of the selections
within the hydro, vegetation,

feb85874-7a4a-41e1-862f-efa29454df0b-2
00:02:16.928 --> 00:02:21.652
soil and spatial menus function
similarly as the one we just saw

feb85874-7a4a-41e1-862f-efa29454df0b-3
00:02:21.652 --> 00:02:26.157
in the example. However, the
interactive hydro selection is a

feb85874-7a4a-41e1-862f-efa29454df0b-4
00:02:26.157 --> 00:02:29.209
bit different, so we'll look at
that one.

eaa18f5b-9120-493a-b23d-d5eb25fb74bf-0
00:02:31.570 --> 00:02:35.467
Interactive hydro allows you to
select multiple parameters for a

eaa18f5b-9120-493a-b23d-d5eb25fb74bf-1
00:02:35.467 --> 00:02:39.004
single station or a single
parameter for multiple stations

eaa18f5b-9120-493a-b23d-d5eb25fb74bf-2
00:02:39.004 --> 00:02:42.781
and then view all the available
data, which you can then scale

eaa18f5b-9120-493a-b23d-d5eb25fb74bf-3
00:02:42.781 --> 00:02:45.000
down to the time period of
interest.

4d1ad992-8b71-46d9-b72c-afbbd982a4ab-0
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:49.421
Displaying a single parameter
for multiple stations allows you

4d1ad992-8b71-46d9-b72c-afbbd982a4ab-1
00:02:49.421 --> 00:02:51.400
to see trends and data by
location.

4185aebf-990d-4847-81a2-3b140363ad76-0
00:02:52.300 --> 00:02:55.250
For example, if you were
interested in visualizing a

4185aebf-990d-4847-81a2-3b140363ad76-1
00:02:55.250 --> 00:02:58.534
water level spike associated
with the hurricane surge, you

4185aebf-990d-4847-81a2-3b140363ad76-2
00:02:58.534 --> 00:03:01.985
could select three stations with
increasing distance from the

4185aebf-990d-4847-81a2-3b140363ad76-3
00:03:01.985 --> 00:03:02.319
coast.

3a658f11-c345-4aac-9479-38155b940f08-0
00:03:04.050 --> 00:03:06.916
Let's do an example with a
single station and multiple

3a658f11-c345-4aac-9479-38155b940f08-1
00:03:06.916 --> 00:03:07.490
parameters.

65791fed-43fb-4b02-a7f8-9a97d5eec8d7-0
00:03:08.930 --> 00:03:12.541
We've entered our station and
chosen our parameters marsh

65791fed-43fb-4b02-a7f8-9a97d5eec8d7-1
00:03:12.541 --> 00:03:14.970
elevation, water level and
inundation.

7755beaf-6efc-48a4-a35c-4dbfc1e0fc9d-0
00:03:18.060 --> 00:03:19.410
And then we'll hit submit.

1a98b5bc-b167-48e7-b8b7-ff8d1bac04f2-0
00:03:23.020 --> 00:03:27.001
Within the interactive hydro
chart, you can use this sliding

1a98b5bc-b167-48e7-b8b7-ff8d1bac04f2-1
00:03:27.001 --> 00:03:29.090
timeline bar to scale down from.

9450a7bc-79bb-415b-afa4-6feea0f4b7ab-0
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:31.940
Monthly averages.

00:03:34.780 --> 00:03:36.210
To daily averages.

faf7cd91-bd9d-4583-9243-381cdb19f33b-0
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:39.870
To continuous hourly.

c709666e-d771-4e31-a6af-96ca4c86d2ff-0
00:03:41.990 --> 00:03:44.680

Period of interest.

c26779f6-1eab-4949-a9b2-a6770f213725-0
00:03:48.480 --> 00:03:50.920
You can slide that quantity of
time.

4d3e7e7e-d4cd-4c10-880a-6501c25c1499-0
00:03:51.620 --> 00:03:54.000
Up and down the timeline for.

e89b6972-255f-4d22-967a-28e72eee9eae-0
00:03:54.910 --> 00:03:55.730
Comparison.

ff7021b6-9769-459c-81ff-9e7f34a7b8be-0
00:03:59.050 --> 00:04:02.950
And as an example of how these 3
parameters interact.

7d953d0a-ab0a-4c1e-8bc5-8003c0a8f766-0
00:04:04.600 --> 00:04:09.030
If you hover over a point and
you look at the legend above.

408ed5b3-b689-4243-8af1-b0779be45c94-0
00:04:10.460 --> 00:04:16.293
You'll see that the water level
minus the marsh elevation equals

408ed5b3-b689-4243-8af1-b0779be45c94-1
00:04:16.293 --> 00:04:17.640
the inundation.

00:04:21.590 --> 00:04:24.290
If you would like to download
the chart, you can do that here.

ef10bd9b-4ec5-4132-83e8-75509eadfa7a-0
00:04:25.750 --> 00:04:29.499
You can also download the CSV
which contains the data that

ef10bd9b-4ec5-4132-83e8-75509eadfa7a-1
00:04:29.499 --> 00:04:30.770
generated the chart.

aa49c8b5-d339-4fb0-b2d1-da1d2cc9ab5b-0
00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:35.380
For that option, you would also
want to select your scale.

eeb7257e-9981-47b9-9c4a-4c40466bc425-0
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:39.647
Let's closeout of the
interactive hydro chart and look

eeb7257e-9981-47b9-9c4a-4c40466bc425-1
00:04:39.647 --> 00:04:41.350
at some other types of charting.

550c56f4-6c86-4093-a957-124639906433-0
00:04:42.770 --> 00:04:44.770
Moving to the bulk charting tab.

fed9dc95-ec06-4a8a-8477-c7b3fcbaa7b8-0
00:04:46.870 --> 00:04:51.578
You'll find here a way to
generate multiple charts all in

fed9dc95-ec06-4a8a-8477-c7b3fcbaa7b8-1
00:04:51.578 --> 00:04:56.287
one go. As an example, we'll use
the same time period and

fed9dc95-ec06-4a8a-8477-c7b3fcbaa7b8-2
00:04:56.287 --> 00:05:01.239
stations that we did for the
multi-station charting example.

fed9dc95-ec06-4a8a-8477-c7b3fcbaa7b8-3
00:05:01.239 --> 00:05:06.516
Once you've entered your dates,
apply date filter. Let's use the

fed9dc95-ec06-4a8a-8477-c7b3fcbaa7b8-4
00:05:06.516 --> 00:05:09.520
map selector to choose our
stations.

00:05:37.200 --> 00:05:40.977
The charts in the zip file
should look like this, with one

d9da8824-7b38-4b58-8f4e-3350f83bdd80-1
00:05:40.977 --> 00:05:42.130
station per chart.

00:05:42.900 --> 00:05:45.650
For the requested time period.

def2839f-9f4a-4f2b-ada6-87eedf4f69f4-0
00:05:46.780 --> 00:05:48.460
This is especially useful.

e72fcc9b-d0e9-4c8c-bb26-7c92a12a3d16-0
00:05:49.180 --> 00:05:51.420
For generating multiple charts.

ad375823-d095-4b9b-9b8b-1798acf74a01-0
00:05:52.270 --> 00:05:54.590
That all needs to be formatted
the same way.

cdab8dbf-e829-4cd2-992f-e53ce80dc571-0
00:05:56.110 --> 00:06:00.271
The last charting example will
look at is for report cards,

cdab8dbf-e829-4cd2-992f-e53ce80dc571-1
00:06:00.271 --> 00:06:02.630
which you can generate under

00:06:07.680 --> 00:06:11.385
This is where you can generate
individual report card charts

419d41a5-da63-4954-ab73-c5331d2d7c84-1
00:06:11.385 --> 00:06:15.333
like the ones you would find in
a report card that you generated

419d41a5-da63-4954-ab73-c5331d2d7c84-2
00:06:15.333 --> 00:06:16.730
from the reporting tab.

00bf99a6-bab3-4074-ad88-ec5c25b2377f-0
00:06:17.510 --> 00:06:22.438
The report cards allow you to
visualize assessments of a

00bf99a6-bab3-4074-ad88-ec5c25b2377f-1
00:06:22.438 --> 00:06:28.058
particular site, project, basin
or entire coast based on various

00:06:33.140 --> 00:06:36.828
If you'd like to learn more
about how these indices were

25a51aa3-0136-49ae-9e76-3a65442eae26-1
00:06:36.828 --> 00:06:40.969
