GW-Base 8.0 Import

The import tools of GW-Base 8.0 are equipped with import assistants, that lead you step by step through the import process. This enables even users who are not familiar with the program to import data into GW-Base without difficulties.
The use of data loggers in ground water monitoring is permanently increasing. We have taken this development into account by integrating the previously separate module GW-Logger into the standard version of GW-Base 8.0. One can now import the read-out files (TXT or ASCII format) of the various logger manufacturers into GW-Base without having to first convert or format the files. Furthermore, it is possible to check the data and if wanted, reduce the data, e.g. to daily mean values, before importing it.
Data from loggers that is sent via remote transmission to an FTP server can be imported, fully automatically and time-controlled, by GW-Base 8.0 from the FTP server.
GW-Base 8.0 has an import management tool that makes an entry after every import process containing the following information: date, editor, as well as content, name and directory of the imported file. As long as the entry of an import process has not been deleted from the import management tool it is possible to undo the import.#
