Determining geyser eruption times from temperature sensor data

geyser_temp_analysis

Library of code to extract geyser eruption times from temperature time series data.

Code can be any language that can be run on a Linux server.

Ideally, one general, parameterized algorithm can be written to evaluate all geysers that have eruption peaks. Not all geyser eruptions have a "peak" as an eruption signature.

Data can be found here: http://www.geysertimes.org/datalogger/Raw%20Data/

The code should
a) read a CSV file of logged times and temperatures
b) output a CSV file of identified eruption times

========================================================================= Here's a ranking of geyser data from "easy" to "hard" to interpret:

Peaks:

1. Aurum
2. Plume
3. Lion
4. Daisy
5. Old Faithful
6. Great Fountain
7. Beehive
8. Oblong
9. Turban

Plateaus (calculate durations, too):

1. Artemisia
2. Fountain
3. Castle (major or minor)
4. Little Squirt
5. Grotto

Drops:

1. Depression
2. Riverside
