Kingfisher Software: The missions-kfish tree

The moos-ivp-kfish Tree

The missions-kfish tree contains a canonical mission running the kingfisher at the MIT Sailing Pavilion. It contains (a) an example mission configured for simulation, and (b) an example mission configured for operation at the Sailing Pavilion. The latter contains configurations both for the vehicles, but also the configuration for the shore-side user's computer for command-and-control.

Step #1 Download the missions-kfish tree

The moos-ivp-kfish tree is available via SVN on the oceanai server. A read-only version is available with anonymous access (no user account necessary), by typing the following on the command line: 

    svn co https://oceanai.mit.edu/svn/missions-kfish-aro missions-kfish

The tree is also available with read/write access for those with an account. Students should access the tree in this manner using the class-wide "student" account with the shared password: 

    svn co --username student https://oceanai.mit.edu/svn/missions-kfish

After checking out the tree, things should look like: 

  $ cd missions-kfish
  $ ls
  alvin_fld/
  alvin_sim/
  data/
  doc/

There are two mission configurations in this tree. The alvin_sim configuration is for running in simulation. The alvin_fld configuration is for running the same mission on the water, communicating with a shore-side computer.
