All we use are strip charts. It's all I saw at Boeing as well (through some proprietary charting software IIRC). What I'd like is some "rich" time series data format that stores a history of modifications (removing noise, filtering etc.), and an overall better interface for scrolling through the data (Windaq is pretty barebones).
- engi_nerd 11y agoWow, that is pretty rough. That's so rough that I would consider figuring out some way to export your data from that software and then visualize it with python/matplotlib or similar.
- nether 11y agoI've been working on a Python module to read the files directly: https://github.com/choj/cldumpread/tree/master/WindaqReader/src https://github.com/choj/cldumpread/tree/master/WindaqReader/.... Scipy/numpy/matplotlib totally opens up what we can do with the data. The hard part is convincing a mechanical engineering manager who's extremely averse to new tools.
- engi_nerd 11y agoI've been there. Once I had to jump through huge hoops just to be allowed to install Python on a machine not connected to any networks.
