📌 How to Use

1. Prepare Your Data

• Copy the log files from your RadiosondeAutoRX folder into a local folder.

2. Update the Database

• Open Main.html in your browser.
• Click Update Database to process and store the data.
• You can repeat this step anytime to add new logs.

* Firefox users:

You will need to host the .html files on a local server. To run a simple server:

python3 -m http.server 8000

Open .html files from: http://localhost:8000

** Windows and Firefox - you will need Python to be installed.
