Four methods for accessing Madrigal data

There are four ways to access Madrigal data.

  • For a simple-to-use interface for plotting and printing data without the flexibility of the next three, choose Simple Madrigal Data Access
  • To look at the data from a particular Madrigal experiment from any Madrigal site, choose Browse for Individual Madrigal Experiments .
  • To get data in ascii format from a group of Madrigal experiments from the local Madrigal site all at once, choose Global Madrigal Database Report .
  • To plot data from one or more instruments and/or experiments, choose Plot Data from Instruments .

Simple Madrigal Data Access allows new users of Madrigal to print and plot data easily. In order to make it easy to use, a number of Madrigal's capabilities are not available, including the ability to choose which parameters to print, the ability to display derived parameters, and the ability to filter data.

This tutorial continues with the simple Madrigal data access tutorial. To jump ahead to one of the other three more full-featured ways to access Madrigal data, go to Browse for Individual Madrigal Experiments, Global Madrigal Database Report or Plot Data from Instruments.
