5 USING ARTEMIS MANAGER
5.1 Mission & Dive Log Files
“Artemis Manager” is a PC Windows software application that is used pre-dive to
configure the Artemis console with geographical locations (navigational waypoints and
targets of interest), and post-dive to review data collected by the sonar, and review
the route taken by the diver along with additional targets marked during the dive.
Artemis Manager provides the user with two distinct functions…
Mission Files
Mission files are created prior to diving with Artemis, and copied onto its internal
memory via the supplied USB cable.
The “Navigation Application” on the Artemis console reads the mission file, and
displays a geographical chart showing the marked navigational waypoints and targets
of interest for the dive.
During the dive, the diver can select a marker from the mission file and the Artemis
Navigation System will then use position data (from the GPS float) to provide real-time
distance and bearing information, helping to navigate them to the target.
The Artemis Manager application provides several methods for importing (and
exporting) position information for the markers, including CSV (Comma Separated
Variable) files and KML files (used by applications like Google Earth™).
Dive Log Files
During the dive, Artemis will collect and record all the sensor information received from
the Sonar, GPS float, internal compass and depth sensor, into a ‘dive log’ file.
Once the dive is complete, the log file can be copied onto a PC running the Artemis
Manager software application, and played back to allow the sonar data to be reviewed
along side the diver position and heading when it was recorded.
Artemis Manager provides several data export functions, allowing the sensor data to be
processed by other third-party applications (such as Tritech SeaNet, Google Earth™
and spreadsheet applications), as well as creating new mission files from the dive
including any additional diver-placed position markers.
