Plotting survey data in your web browser

So I kept myself busy for a while writing my own Python code to plot station-station survey data that can be run in a web browser via Google Colab.

It is in a state where it functions and can be shared, instructions are available at https://github.com/EdwardALockhart/ShotPlot which includes some example data (shamefully pulled from a recent public UKC post and formatted accordingly).

This challenge was mostly to see how easy it would be to replicate what complex software like Survex does, but it might be useful for those who want simple and quick plots without having to play around with local software and specific file formats.

If anyone wants to submit any real world survey data, this will greatly help my testing, it would be appreciated.

Do let me know what you think. More functionality will be added in due course but the aim is to keep it as simple as possible.

Cheers
Ed

If it’s my data, more than happy to help, if you want any photos of the cave let me know. I don’t think we took many. But will have some of the entrance. A very inaccurate location of the entrance is here

The guys are out in Spain currently, I hope they are having fun and finding new cave too.

Looking back, it was indeed! Thanks!

Others have since sent some survey data to test and there is an example plot on the GitHub page of some of the outputs.

If you're after sample data, there's oodles here:
Beautiful, thanks! Coniston copper mines plotted up from some of the data.
