LogAnalyzer

TO DO:

• Detect type of flight (Thermal vs Ridge)
• Low save detector
• Add Speed to Fly / MacReady Calc
• Fix KMZ crator (adjust to ground)

Analysis Methodology

Default Settings

• climb_time_threshold: 10 seconds
• climb_ascend_threshold: 0.5 m/s (or you're not really climbing)
• glide_time_threshold: 15 seconds
• sink_time_threshold: 7 seconds
• sink_descend_threshold: 2.5 m/s

Climbs

• Definition: consecutive readings greater than <climb_time_threshold>
• Efficiency Grade:
  • Each single climb is graded
  • Graded on percent of time altitude increases continuously in climbing block
  • Overall grade is the mean of all climbs grades together

Glides

• Definition: not a climb or sink
• Efficiency Grade:
  • Calculates L/D on glide
  • Overall grade is the mean of L/Ds

Sinks

• Definition: consecutive readings greater than <sink_time_threshold>
• Sustained more than the <sink_descend_threshold>
• Overall grade provided as a mean of sink rate
