Collect Data (Tech Collect)

The data collection functions available through Diagnostics provide
enhanced features for viewing and analysis. Once the collection
process is complete, Profile displays the data in both hydrograph and
scattergraph formats based on the entities collected. In addition to the
scattergraph displaying the depth-to-velocity relationship, it also
displays a scattergraph illustrating the correlation between depth
entities.

For analysis purposes, the Diagnostics tool automatically processes
the data using Site DR (data review). This feature identifies issues
concerning data quality or missing information and offers
recommendations (when necessary) for conducting further review,
investigation, or analysis.

Two Diagnostics data collect functions include Collect and Tech
Collect
. Under most conditions, users should choose the Collect
function. Using this collect function allows active sensor information
and current monitor status information to be generated and recorded to
the collect log. The Tech Collect function can be used to expedite the
collect process. If using this function, no sensor information or
monitor status information is generated or logged.
