Open Source Unix Shell Scientific/Engineering Software

WxTools (Weather Data Tool Suite) is a collection of software for collecting and displaying weather data from various weather stations. The software works with the Fine Offset WH290 and similar models (including clones such as the Pro-Signal PSG04173). It also works with the Oregon Scientific WMR180 weather station (and probably similar models such as the WMR88 and WMR100) as well as the older WMR928. Sample weather data is provided.

ForeRunner X01 toolkit provides an easy access to Forerunner 201/301/305/305E GPS-units. There are multiple command line tools to read data from GPS into database and tools to export data in different formats like gpx and tcx.

A set of Unix command line tools for quick and convenient batch processing of tabular text files (a.k.a., tab-delimited, csv, or flat file format) with a header line. Provides delimiter and compression detection, column reference by name. * tblmap: per-line ("map") computation: derive columns through an expression, delete, reorder, filter rows. * tblred: compute ("reduce") aggregations (e.g., sum, average) over groups defined by key columns. * tbldesc: Summarize columns in file (e.g., proportion of character/numeric values, min/mean/median/max, missing values, correlation with a target column). * tbljoin: Relational join without the need of pre-sorting and column matching. * ...
