Installing from Zip archvies

This is the way of the past. This will provide you with a stable CODAS installation that works with most datasets produced by UHDAS, VmDAS, or DAS2.48 for the following RDI ADCPs:

• OS150, OS75, OS38
• NB150
• WH300
• BB75

No plotting or data manipulation is done in Python with this distribution.

Instructions:

1. Install Python 2.4 or 2.5
2. Install Matlab (up through R2007b); we have not tried R2008
3. Install CODAS programs from zip archives
4. Set up your paths:
   • unix
   • windows

UPGRADE : There really isn’t such a thing as an upgrade, only a re-installation. Move your present “programs” directory to another name for safekeeping, then follow the instructions below for a new installation.

Pay attention to the section about paths (matlab path, python path, path to executables) below: you will have to alter your present configuration to find files in new locations, as the code has been reorganized since the last release.

NEW INSTALLATION: Follow the instructions below for obtaining zip archives and installing them. NOTE: When you install our matlab code, there will be no “m_map” included. If you wish to use “m_map”, you should either copy the version you were using before (from your renamed directory) or download a new version, if appropriate. See the “matlab” portion of the discussion about paths, below.
