Throughout SciTec's extensive field test history, our quicklook data analysis has played a significant role in our field test successes. The purpose of quicklook data analysis is to assess on site whether the data obtained is adequate to produce the final data products required by the customer. If anomalies in the data are discovered, the quicklook data analyst interacts with the testers to troubleshoot the measurements. As part of the quicklook procedure, preliminary data products are produced on site.
