Interactive ODB Snapshot - Gemini South 2008B

This page is intended primarily for use by the National Gemini Office support staff and the Gemini Contact Scientists to monitor the status of programs during the Phase II process. It is updated daily at about 9am local time. (Program PIs might wish to look at the overall queue summary page and the link from each program to the execution status of each observation which is updated every 4hrs or at the nightly log of observations executed each night. The table below does show the contact names for each program; see also the list of NGO and Gemini support e-mail addresses).

Notes about table contents and interactive use:

• The table entries are updated directly from the Observing Database at about 9am local time (in Hawaii or Chile). Each row corresponds to one program for the telescope and semester specified in the page title. If you don't see a table but instead see a thick blue line it is likely that you have script execution disabled in your browser.
• The seven columns labeled %[text] show the fraction of observations in each state. Non-zero percentages at "Phase II", "For Review" or "For Activation" are highlighted orange. Note that these fractions are of observations, not allocated time. Sometimes the two are far from equivalent, for example if a program includes many alternate targets or calibration observations.
• The NGO and Gemini Contact Scientist (CS) names are extracted from the entries in the Science Program e-mail fields with the domain removed.
• The table is configurable (using client-side javascripting so that there is no additional load on the Observing Database server).
• Click on the title of any column to sort the table. An arrow appears next to the column title to show the sort order (ascending or descending).
• There is an option at the bottom of the table to filter the rows using a text string. In the box next to "use" enter the string, select the column to which it should be applied from the pull-down list and click on the tick/check icon to filter. To turn off filter, click on the [x] icon. You can also clear sorting or filtering by refreshing the page using your browser controls. As an example, type dav in the search box, select the NGO email column and activate the filter. The results show only those program for which Tim Davidge is the NGO contact. You can also sort the filtered list by clicking on the column titles. Note that the search is case sensitive.
• You can click on one or more rows of the table to highlight them (in yellow). This highlighting is carried forward into sorting and filtering results and cancelled by refreshing the page.
• If the table has more than 25 rows, subsequent entries are displayed on additional pages. Click on the arrows at the bottom right or left to move through the pages.
