Name:
ratlist - Admin utility to list all the ratings and rating dates with their data aging status for a given station or data descriptor.

Information:

This script is a useful utility to list all ratings and rating dates with their data aging status for a given station or data descriptor. It is useful for diagnosing potential problems with rating dates (overlaps, gaps, etc.) or finding lingering data aging issues.

Usage: ratlist [-a agency_cd] [-z db_no] -n site_no [-d dd_nu] [-l Oracle_time_zone]

Where:

db_no if omitted defaults to 1
agency_cd if omitted defaults of 'USGS'
dd_nu if omitted all ratings for the site will be displayed
Oracle_timezone is US/EASTERN, US/CENTRAL, US/MOUNTAIN, or US/PACIFIC or -4:00, etc... (Defaults to GMT if omitted)

Sample Output:

The fields in the output are as follows:

agency: agency code
station station ID
dd_nu data descriptor
rat_id internal ADAPS rating ID
aging rating data aging status (working, in-review, approved)
rating_cd type of rating (see ADAPS manual section 3.6.1)
rating_no rating number
dateaging rating date data aging status
startdtm rating date start time (in time zone as given via command line argument - default is GMT)
