lgalbraith Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 I imported some raw files after a met tower was initially set up and the first several files don't contain any real data. Is there a way to remove them from my database so they don't appear in reports going forward? Thanks!Lindsay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Carlson Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Hi, No, there isn't a function in SDR to delete data once it's in the site file. Once it is imported, it cannot be removed, only written over by re-importing the data where changes have been made to the site file. There are 2 ways to deal with this issue: Use a blanket filter to omit the data from exports Delete the site file and start over To use a blanket filter, in SDR click Site > View Database, and select your site from the list. click Filters and Blanket Filters enter the range of dates you would like to exclude flag All Channels as Invalid Data Alternately, to start over with a new site, simply delete or otherwise remove the site file from the C:/NRG/SiteFiles directory.

Matthew Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Wouldn't it work to edit the site file history so that the sensors are all set up as "No sensor" for the period when data is not available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Carlson Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Good idea! That should work as well. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
