• Amity sent a video explaining how to access their data. It is a Windows wmv file so on a Mac you will need to download VLC to play it.  The format of the data appears to be:

  However, the PingER format for the measurements (as given in https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/IEPM/PingER+Monitor+node+format) is

  which is very different. Also we wish to add the lat long of the Measurement agent so we can accommodate the maneuverability of the MAs.  I propose that in order to maintain backward compatibility we add the lat long of the MA at the end of each record following a semi-colon (;). E.g. 
  monitor.niit.edu.pk 203.99.50.204 www.carnet.hr 161.53.160.25 100 1171756802 10 10 223.323 224.978 226.805 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 226 223 226 223 223 226 223 224 226 225; 37.4472 122.1754

  I have emailed Amity with this information 2/27/2020

Bebo, at our last meeting (Nov 26th), we discussed Amity and installing, testing the Amity Android PingER. My understanding was that you would need help to ensure it is working and the current level of collaboration does not look very conducive. It would help if Topher could assist and he would be visiting you around the end of the 1st week on December last year
From the minutes of our last meeting:
"SLAC needs to know how to access the Firebase data.
• Once that is known and the data with lat, long included and we understand the format and how to access it, Les will look at how to incorporate in a backward-compatible fashion into the current PingER.Amity sent some information 10/19/2019. Les sent a long email 11/15/2019, asking how to understand files, how to get the lat/long and engaging Bebo and Saqib etc. 
• Naman replied 11/18/2019 "The link which I shared is the apk file. You need not to extract it. Just download the apk and install on the mobile platform." Bebo, do you need more information, can you try this or follow up with Naman."
I sent email to Naman on Dec 6th with a copy to you saying:
"Thanks for the guidance on Firebase. I entered https://firebase.google.com/ in my Chrome browser.
In the page that came up (see 2nd attachment) I saw no place to enter the Google account pingeramity123@gmail.com. The page had a video and a Get Started button. I tried the video but saw nothing about entering a Google account.
Towards the bottom of https://firebase.google.com/
there was a section:
Authenticate a new user. With choices of Language (Swift Objective-C etc.)
The Authenticate a new user was a pull down that included "Subscribe a new user to a notification topic" 
I clicked on this and the 1st attachment popped up
That did not appear to help. 
I am sure this is all very powerful once one understands how to use it, but at the moment I am stalled.  Please help a newbie."
Naman responded 12/22/2019:
"Extremely sorry for the late response. I must have missed it somehow.
We will arrange a skype meeting in the first week of January to demonstrate how firebase works."
It appears we have missed the window of Topher's visit and the 1st week of January is over.
I am cc'ing Naman in case he has any suggestions.  I am also ccing Saqib since he was looking at this subject.
No response from Amity about January meeting, sent email reminder 2/16/2020.Amity School of Engineering and Technology (ASET), is organizing CONFLUENCE-2020, 10th International Conference on Cloud Computing, Data Science & Engineering technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE UP SECTION 29-31st January..

• Bebo and Les are invited speakers (by Skype). However, they declined.
  
 Naman Madan is submitting a paper to "Confluence-2020:10th International Conference on Cloud Computing, Data Science & Engineering" titled "Implementation of PingER on Android Mobile Devices Using Firebase". Les has reviewed and made suggestions
