Visualising Data

The pigrow is able to capture large amounts of data which we can use to monitor our grow, to help understand all this data there are various visualisation tools.

Info modules - these read current system information, logs, or folders and give a concise text output of useful information which can be incorporated into the gui's system panel, read vis SSH, included in datawalls or run directly on the pi itself.

Graphs modules - take data read from the logs and use it to create various types of graphs which can show the information in various ways such as simple line graphs of the values, rate of change, with day-night (or lamp on/off) changes overlaid, etc.

Graph Module Function

Datawalls - these are .png images constructed with the output of datawalls and graph modules or through their own processing of logs to create a visual display of important information in an easy to view and understand display.

All three are designed to be simple for users to create and share their own modules, see the guide about creating your own for detailed instructions on how to code your own
