6 x2sys_get - Get track listing from track index databases

10 -Rwest/east/south/north[r] ] [ -V ] ]
11
13 x2sys_get will return the names of the track data files that match the
14 given requirements. You may choose a geographic region and optionally
15 ask only for tracks that meet certain data criteria. Finally, you may
16 select an option to list all possible pairs that might generate
17 crossovers.
18
19 TAG The unique tag name of this data type system.
20
22 No space between the option flag and the associated arguments.
23
24 -C Instead of reporting the track names, just output the coordi‐
25 nates of the center of each bin that has at least one track with
26 the specified data.
27
28 -F Give a comma-separated list of column names (as described in the
29 definition file) that should be present. [Default selects all
30 data columns].
31
32 -L Crossover mode. Return a list of track pairs that should be
33 checked for possible crossovers. The list is determined from
34 the bin-index data base on the assumption that tracks occupying
35 the same bin are very likely to intersect. By default we return
36 all possible pairs in the data base. Append the name of a file
37 with a list of tracks if you want to limit the output to those
38 pairs that involve at least one of the track names in your list.
39 The output is suitable for the -K option in x2sys_cross.
40
41 -N Give a comma-separated list of column names (as described in the
42 definition file) that must be absent.
43
44 -R west, east, south, and north specify the Region of interest, and
45 you may specify them in decimal degrees or in
46 [+-]dd:mm[:ss.xxx][W|E|S|N] format. Append r if lower left and
47 upper right map coordinates are given instead of w/e/s/n. The
48 two shorthands -Rg and -Rd stand for global domain (0/360 and
49 -180/+180 in longitude respectively, with -90/+90 in latitude).
50
51 -V Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr
52 [Default runs "silently"].
53
55 To find all the tracks associated with the tag mgd77, restricted to
56 occupy a certain region in the south Pacific, and have at least free
57 air anomalies and bathymetry, try
58
59 x2sys_get -V -Tmgd77 -R180/240/-60/-30 -Ffaa,depth
60
61 To find all the tracks associated with the tag mgd77 that have depth
62 but not twt, try
63
64 x2sys_get -V -Tmgd77 -Fdepth -Ntwt
65
66 To find all the pairs associated with the tag mgd77 that might inter‐
67 sect each other, but only those pairs which involves tracks in your
68 list new.lis, try
69
70 x2sys_get -V -Tmgd77 -Lnew.lis > xpairs.lis
