NAME
x_list - Extract Cross-Over Information from the Data Base. SYNOPSIS
x_list [ leg1 ] [ leg2 ] [ -dataflags ] [ -Rwest/east/south/north ] [ -Xxbase ] [ -H ] [ -I ] [ -V ] [ -Ccorrfile ] [ -Zignorefile ] DESCRIPTION
x_list will allow the user to extract information from the xx_base.b and xx_legs.b files. Several options can be passed on the command line in order to specify which parameters to extract. They are: leg1 leg2 If two legs are specified, the cross-overs they have in common are returned. If one leg is specified, all the external cross-overs involving this leg are returned, OR only its internal cross-overs if -I is selected. If no legs are given, all the external (or internal with -I) cross-overs are returned. This program is useful if one wants to look at, say, gravity COEs versus time from port for a particular leg, etc. dataflags This is a string of any combination of the following: l means list both legnames. t means list time. x means list longitude. y means list latitude. g means list gravity COEs. m means list magnetics COEs. b means list bathymetry COEs. G means list average gravity at cross-over. M means list average magnetic anomaly at cross-over. B means list average bathymetry at cross-over. h means list heading of ship at cross-over. The components are written out in the order they appear in dataflags. The default output is -txygmbGMBhl. When internal COEs are desired, the time reported is the elapsed time since the ship first occupied the cross-over point. For external COEs the time means time from the start of the year in seconds. -R Only return cross-overs inside the specified region west, east, south, and north. [Default is world]. -X Indicate alternate xx_base.b file. -H Issue one header record on output. -I Report on internal COEs [Default is external COEs]. -C Apply cross-over correction to the data (i.e. reports the cross-over value after the best-fitting corrections have been applied to both legs). If no corrfile is given, the default correction file is assumed. -Z Ignore those legs that appear in the ignorefile. -V Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"].

NAME
x_over - Find and compute Cross-Over Errors SYNOPSIS
x_over leg_1 [ leg_2 ] [ -A ] [ -C ] [ -L ] [ -V ] [ -Wtimegap ] [ -Gfact ] [ -Mfact ] [ -Tfact ] [ -Nnp_int ] DESCRIPTION
x_over is used to inspect two cruises to see if they intersect, and if so report the time, position, discrepancies in gravity/magnetics/ba- thymetry, heading for each track segment, and the average values of the geophysical observables at the cross-over point. The names of the legs are passed on the command line. If they are identical or only one name is passed, then x_over looks for internal cross-overs. The optional parameters are: -A Use an Akima spline to interpolate the geophysical field at the cross-over point. -C Use a Natural Cubic spline function instead. -L Use a linear interpolant [Default]. -W Do not compute cross-overs if the 2 nearest points are more than timegap minutes apart. -G Scale gravity by fact [Default is 0.1 since gmt-files store gravity in g.u.] -M Scale magnetic anomaly by fact [1.0]. -T Scale bathymetry by fact [1.0]. -N Specify how many points to use in the interpolation [Default is 6]. -V Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"]. Report the number of cross-overs for this pair of legs. BEWARE
The COEs found are printed out to standard output in ASCII format. The first record contains the leg names and their start year, whereas subsequent records have the data for each COE encountered. The fields written out are lat, lon, time along track #1, time along track #2, x_gravity, x_magnetics, x_bathymetry, average gravity, average magnetics, average bathymetry, heading along track #1, and heading along track #2. Sign convention: If lega and legb are passed on the command line, then the COE value is Value (lega) - Value (legb). It is rec- ommended that the Akima spline is used instead of the natural cubic spline, since it is less sensitive to outliers that tend to introduce wild oscillations in the interpolation. SEE ALSO
