8 I worked for a NASA project called <A
9 HREF="http://www.earthkam.ucsd.edu">EarthKAM</A> in southern California.
10 Our project must monitor space shuttle telemetry both real-time and after
11 the mission has been completed. The information is stored in a database,
12 so rrdtool was the perfect solution - it's cgi interface allows generation
13 of web pages showing the status of incoming telemetry, and the perl module
14 allowed me to quickly create a user interface allowing users to display any
15 or all of the incoming information on whatever time scale they need.
16 rrdtool is awesome!
