Guidelines on upload data using TERN SFTPGo portal

For uploading data using TERN SFTPGo portal, please see How to upload and access files using TERN SFTPGo portal

Important notes

  1. All files must be copied directly under the sensor folder. There should be no subfolders within the sensor folder. This would prevent data ingestion. 

  2. Since subfolders are not allowed, if you need to upload multiple txt files with the same name, e.g. ALIC02_Sensor-A.txt and ALIC02_Sensor-A.txt, the second file will overwrite the first one. To avoid this, before uploading the files please rename them by adding a progressive number at the end, e.g. ALIC02_Sensor-A_01.txt, ALIC02_Sensor-A_02.txt. 

  3. Please notify us at esupport@tern.org.au for any change in recording conditions, e.g. changes in location, instrument make and model, and recording settings (sampling rate, depth, number of channels, gain). 

  4. If an acoustic sensor is moved to a new location within the site or an additional sensor is installed, please notify us. We will assign a new name to the sensor and create a new sensor folder.
