| contents | This is a document discussing the creation and usage of a server system dedicated to retrieving, processing, and storing data generated from the Solar Neutrino and Astro-Particle PhYsics (SNAPPY) CubeSat by the nuSOL (Neutrino Solar Orbiting Laboratory) Project. On a traditional desktop computer with CERN's ROOT and PostgreSQL software installed, and with a file system on two mirrored drives, it is possible to automatically process and organize incoming data, along with keeping a database to record each incoming file along with a command record. In addition to this, an application was created to provide a Graphical User Interface to assist with creating commands to communicate with the CubeSat. With that said, there are still plenty of plans to improve the software, mainly providing an automatic emailing system to notify team members when they are not around the server. |
