<br />
A 43 year old Toulouse resident, Pascal Brisset, fell to his death on Saturday afternoon into a crevasse from the north face of the Vignemale Glacier, in the Hautes-Pyrenees.<br />
<br />
A member of the Toulouse French Alpine Club, Pascal Brisset was participating in a glacier safety camp. With his fellow climbers he planned to stay overnight at the refuge "Les Oulettes de Gaube". The accident took place on Saturday afternoon around 15:00. A snow bridge collapsed under Pascal's weight. The climber's harness was not attached at the moment and he fell into the newly revealed crevasse.<br />
<br />
The rescue team from Pierrefitte-Nestalas arrived on scene shortly after by helicopter.<br />
<br />
The body of the climber was located 30 meters deep. The crevasse was only one meter large at the top and narrowed down to 20 centimeters.<br />
<br />
The rescue team worked all Saturday afternoon and came back on Sunday morning trying to free the body. A very difficult task due to the narrow crevasse, and the fact that the body was already ice-bound. The rescue team tried everything including a jackhammer to break the ice gangue. The effort ceased at noon on Sunday due to the high risk of rock falls and a hazardous snow. "we had to quit working" said, yesterday, a member of the rescue team, disappointed.<br />
<br />
Pascal Brisset will remain a prisoner of his ice coffin for now. In motion, the Vignemale Glacier should give the body back in a few months or years.<br />

Pascal, your work, your project has changed my life. To fly an autonmous plane was only a dream and it came true. It was a great pleasure to meet you at all the interesting places that this project brought us to, work together and have all the talks and chats. Will miss you and all that a lot<br />

Looks like it's going to be hard not to repeat what Martin said above.... Thank you for the journey you offered me those past 8 years. I'll miss you. I'm not sure how we're going to keep this thing afloat without you, but don't worry, we'll find a way<br />

Pascal, You were a great friend and role model to us all. Your incredible motivation, ingenuity, and generosity was inspirational and instrumental to the professional success of many of your followers. I, for one, could not have found my perfect job designing UAVs for Aerovironment if I had not met you and absorbed some of your tremendous knowledge. You have significantly shaped the direction of my life and will always remain a part of me.<br />

Paparazzi without Pascal would be like oil to water. Pascal, you showed patience without end, teaching someone new every day. You opened your home and your life to many of us without any thought of the cost. Without you and this project my life would be very different from where it is today, different and less fulfilling. You gave us all an amazing gift, do not worry we will not let it spoil. Thank you again, we all miss you!<br />
<br><i>- Anton</i> (USA)<br />

<br />
Not much to add, I only got the chance to meet you once and you wouldn't even let me buy you a beer! <br />
You truly embodied the idea of open source and as many have said above, the Paparazzi project had a significant role in my future career and education.<br />

Pascal, I feel really lucky that I met you ! You were not only the best advisor that one can ever dream of, a perfect human being, but also a wonderful friend to me. After all years that you have dedicated for the project, I am totally sure that a part of you will ALWAYS fly with Paparazzi UAVs all over the world. There is so much things to say but... Thank you very much for everything Pascal ! I will miss you a lot... <br />

I'm so sorry to hear about this tragedy. After receiving much help from Pascal and many other wonderful members of this community, a working set of Paparazzi aircraft has facilitated me in the completion of my Ph.D. dissertation defense, and in surveying the damage caused by the disastrous floods here in Nashville, TN. I bring with me significant embedded systems expertise, and experience in integration of PPZ into large scale aircraft, so I will be happy to contribute to whatever I can. My deepest sympathies to his family and to all those that knew him.<br />

This is shocking news. We are heartbroken here, our condolences to Pascals family, and the entire Paparazzi group. Pascal was indeed a special person. I met him, and some of the other ENAC members at MAV 08. To me, it was a dream come true, to meet Pascal and the group. We even went flying in the evening together. Pascal has always been there to help and assist, I don't think we would be doing what we do, or reached the stage we are at if it weren't for Pascals help. I cant come to terms with this loss. From now on, every flight we fly is dedicated to Pascal.<br />

My Deepest condolences to Pascals family, its shocking to hear this.

So sorry to hear such a sad news, we have lost such an intelligent person. My deepest and sincerest condolence to Pascal's families and friends. I still remember how kindly he was for answering my questions and helping me to make progress on the Paparazzi project. The only thing I could do is making my best efforts to let our UAV equipped with Paparazzi autopilot win again in this year's competition as the best memorial for him.<br />

Like so many others here, flying robots is a dream and your brainchild was what let me see that dreams can be a reality. For that I will be forever grateful and indebted to you. I remember the first time I flew on autopilot; putting a plane in the air and having it fly itself seemed almost magical. But it was the hard work that you took the pains to share with the world that made it possible. Your talents were unmatched and the world is poorer now without you. Your welcoming spirit is something that I will not soon forget. We grieve at your sudden departure and our hearts go out to those who knew you best.<br />

From the very few contacts I had with Pascal, I was really unable to miss the gentleness and kindness he shows in every act.<br />
He was helpful, simple, generous and sincere.Even for a stranger asking for a few hints about a mountain hike, he took plenty of time to give me his best tricks and advice. I really feel that, to everybody he met, his absence is going to be a great loss, and lasting sadness. I feel really sad today, and I send all my condoleances to his family.<br />

The rare intelligence, kindness and humility of Pascal Brisset made him a precious man to meet. He has been, and still will be, a tremendous inspiration to some of my close friends who worked with him and whose life was forever changed to the better. Nature has now called him back, to the heart of the moutains he loved with passion. May he rest in peace and may time ease the pain of those who knew and remember him. Fly on Pascal !<br />

We were back in the Arctic flying Paparazzi aircrafts on Svalbard (N78° E15°) doing research with the Geophysical Institute of the University of Bergen/Norway. There are two teams operating near Longyearbyen, one on the apron of Longyearbyen airport (LYR) and the other at the old northern lights research station in Adventdalen. We had permission to fly up to 1500m outside the airport opening times. The Paparazzi aircrafts work perfectly...for humans it is just a little cold. Last night we flew having -32°C (-25°F) on the ground. There is a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1k_TLcQ2ic video] showing a 1500m vertical profile flight. <br />

<hr />
<div>On each launch, the <tt>server</tt> creates a ''log'' of all the messages sent by the aircraft. This log can be used to analyse flight data and to replay the flight.<br />
<br />
==Format==<br />
<br />
The log files are stored in the <tt>var/logs/</tt> folder (under <tt>PAPARAZZI_HOME</tt>). A log is split into two files:<br />
* A <tt>.log</tt> file, an XML file, which contains a copy of the whole configuration (airframes, flight plans, ...).<br />
* A <tt>.data</tt> file, an ascii file, which contains the list of the received messages. Each message is time-stamped in seconds since the creation of the file and marked with the id of the sending aircraft.<br />
<br />
The basename of these two files is the same and is build from the date and time at the creation.<br />
<br />
The lines of the <tt>.data</tt> file are formatted according to the message description listed in the <tt>conf/messages.xml</tt> file. For example, the following line:<br />
3.300 6 GPS 3 36028551 481359212 899 18500 0 -8 960 31 0<br />
contains a <tt>GPS</tt> message received at time 3.3s, from aircraft 6. According the GPS message description:<br />
<message name="GPS" ID="8"><br />
<field name="mode" type="uint8" unit="byte_mask"></field><br />
<field name="utm_east" type="int32" unit="cm"></field><br />
<field name="utm_north" type="int32" unit="cm"></field><br />
<field name="course" type="int16" unit="decideg"></field><br />
<field name="alt" type="int32" unit="cm"></field><br />
...<br />
</message><br />
UTM position is 360285.51m east, 4813592.12m north, course is 89.9° (east), altitude is 185m, ...<br />
Note that the appropriate <tt>messages.xml</tt> description, i.e. the one which has been used while the log was created, is itself stored in the associated <tt>.log</tt> file. It may differ from the current one installed in your <tt>conf/</tt> folder.<br />
<br />
Note: The <tt>.data</tt> files may be huge (about 4M per hour with a standard telemetry configuration). They can be efficiently compressed. The tools described in the next sections handle most of the compressed format (.zip, .gz, .bz2, ...). The bzip2 compression seems to perform better than others on these files.<br />
<br />
==Data Plotting==<br />
<br />
Data stored in log files can be plotted with the [[Plotter]] (<tt>sw/logalizer/plot</tt> or launchable from the [[Paparazzi Center]]). This tool can plot data from different logs in the same window and data from the same log in different windows. It also offers to export the track as a KML file for [http://earth.google.com Google Earth].<br />
<br />
==Replay==<br />
A flight can be replayed with the Log Flight Player (<tt>sw/logalizer/play</tt>, launchable from the [[Paparazzi Center]]). This agent then is a substitute for the Data Link agent and will send over the bus the messages which had been send by the aircraft while the log was recorded.<br />
<br />
Note: While replaying a log, it is a good idea to disable a new log creation from the server (<tt>-n</tt> option). <br />
<br />
When doing a log replay it is very valuable to launch the messages window (in the tools menu) as well. This allows for the use of the the real time plotter and also gives the data from the aircraft to the user.<br />
<br />
If the user wishes to speed up a replay gaia can be used (launch from paparazzi centers tools menu) to do this by changing the time scale.<br />
<br />
A <tt>.log</tt> file given in the command line will be loaded on startup.<br />
<br />
===Output on a serial port===<br />
Launched with the <tt>-o</tt> option, the player will send to a serial port all the binary messages, as they have been received through the modem during the flight. Related options:<br />
* <tt>-s</tt> Set the baudrate (<tt>9600</tt>)<br />
* <tt>-d</tt> Set the device (<tt>/dev/ttyUSB0</tt>)<br />
<br />
==Load PprzLog into Matlab Workspace==<br />
Paparazzi log file could also be converted into matrices in matlab workspace for further data processing. An example matlab script is shown in [http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Image:PprzLog2Matlab_1_0.zip PprzLog2Matlab_1_0.zip]. The example script needs the inputs of the log file name and directory. Just modify the line "fid = fopen('.\FlighLog20090321_MZN\09_03_19__15_03_14.data','r');". Eight matrices are read into matlab workspace including GPS_SOL, GPS, PPRZ_MODE, DESIRED, ATTITUDE, NAVIGATION, NAVIGATION_REF, COMMANDS. The user could also modify the code easily to add more messages they want to know.</div>Haiyanghttp://wiki.paparazziuav.org/w/index.php?title=Logs&diff=4971Logs2009-04-12T03:52:37Z<p>Haiyang: /* Convert PprzLog into Matlab Workspace */</p>

contains a <tt>GPS</tt> message received at time 3.3s, from aircraft 6. According the GPS message description:<br />

Note that the appropriate <tt>messages.xml</tt> description, i.e. the one which has been used while the log was created, is itself stored in the associated <tt>.log</tt> file. It may differ from the current one installed in your <tt>conf/</tt> folder.<br />
<br />
Note: The <tt>.data</tt> files may be huge (about 4M per hour with a standard telemetry configuration). They can be efficiently compressed. The tools described in the next sections handle most of the compressed format (.zip, .gz, .bz2, ...). The bzip2 compression seems to perform better than others on these files.<br />
<br />
==Data Plotting==<br />
<br />
Data stored in log files can be plotted with the [[Plotter]] (<tt>sw/logalizer/plot</tt> or launchable from the [[Paparazzi Center]]). This tool can plot data from different logs in the same window and data from the same log in different windows. It also offers to export the track as a KML file for [http://earth.google.com Google Earth].<br />
<br />
==Replay==<br />
A flight can be replayed with the Log Flight Player (<tt>sw/logalizer/play</tt>, launchable from the [[Paparazzi Center]]). This agent then is a substitute for the Data Link agent and will send over the bus the messages which had been send by the aircraft while the log was recorded.<br />
<br />
Note: While replaying a log, it is a good idea to disable a new log creation from the server (<tt>-n</tt> option). <br />
<br />
When doing a log replay it is very valuable to launch the messages window (in the tools menu) as well. This allows for the use of the the real time plotter and also gives the data from the aircraft to the user.<br />
<br />
If the user wishes to speed up a replay gaia can be used (launch from paparazzi centers tools menu) to do this by changing the time scale.<br />
<br />
A <tt>.log</tt> file given in the command line will be loaded on startup.<br />
<br />
===Output on a serial port===<br />
Launched with the <tt>-o</tt> option, the player will send to a serial port all the binary messages, as they have been received through the modem during the flight. Related options:<br />
* <tt>-s</tt> Set the baudrate (<tt>9600</tt>)<br />
* <tt>-d</tt> Set the device (<tt>/dev/ttyUSB0</tt>)<br />
<br />
==Read PprzLog into Matlab Workspace==<br />
Paparazzi log file could also be converted into matrices in matlab workspace for further data processing. An example matlab script is shown in [http://paparazzi.enac.fr/wiki/Image:PprzLog2Matlab_1_0.zip PprzLog2Matlab_1_0.zip]. The example script needs the inputs of the log file name and directory. Just modify the line "fid = fopen('.\FlighLog20090321_MZN\09_03_19__15_03_14.data','r');". Eight matrices are read into matlab workspace including GPS_SOL, GPS, PPRZ_MODE, DESIRED, ATTITUDE, NAVIGATION, NAVIGATION_REF, COMMANDS. The user could also modify the code easily to add more messages they want to know.</div>Haiyanghttp://wiki.paparazziuav.org/w/index.php?title=Logs&diff=4970Logs2009-04-12T03:51:56Z<p>Haiyang: </p>
