In
response to our customers, we at ASL Environmental Sciences have
developed the IPS Processing Toolbox and User's Guide.

**
Now available **
- easier to use software and
improved documentation for processing Ice Profiler data sets.
The User's
Guide gives step-by-step instructions. This is an alternative to
the 4-day training course offered at ASL Environmental Sciences.
All
existing software programs were modified to use Graphical User Interface
(GUI) routines to make operating the programs much easier.
|
A
set of new programs has been added to the Toolbox as well:
- Automated
and interactive methods for corrections for variations
in sound speed (beta correction)
- Automatic
creation and manual editing of header files
- Ability
to save settings
- Online
help for use of programs

The
purpose of this user's guide is to enable users of the ASL IPS Processing
Toolbox to develop appropriate procedures for processing IPS4 data.
The successful processing and analysis of IPS4 data requires a solid
understanding of the instrument itself and of the physics of underwater
acoustic and oceanographic processes.
In
this user's guide, a detailed suite of MATLAB based software tools
are described with instructions and examples of their use. The key
features of the IPS instrument are also described, as well as explanations
of the relevant physical oceanographic processes, which the software
tools are applied to.
Customers
may purchase a licensed copy for US$ 1,900, which will include software
support available by telephone or email for the the first year for
a maximum of 8 man-hours per year. The assistance service can be
obtained at a cost of US$ 450 in the future.
Past customers
who took training courses with ASL will be offered reduced rates.
