PanGet - downloads multiple data sets from PANGAEA

The software PanGet is a special tool for the download of multiple data sets from PANGAEA. It uses the PANGAEA data set ID which is unique and part of the DOI. In a first step a list of ID's of those data sets to be downloaded must be created. There are two choices to define this individual collection of sets. Based on the ID list, the tool will download the data sets. Failed downloads are written to the file *_failed.txt. The functionality of PanGet is also part of the program Pan2Applic (choose File > Download PANGAEA datasets...) and PanTool2 (choose Basic tools > Download PANGAEA datasets...).

Pan2Applic - a tool to convert and compile PANGAEA output files

The software Pan2Applic is a tool to convert files or folders of files (ascii/tab-separated data files with or without metaheader), downloaded from PANGAEA via the search engine or the data warehouse to formats as used by applications, e.g. for visualization or further processing. It may also be used to convert files or zip-archives as downloaded from CD-ROM data collections, published in the WDC-MARE Reports series. Pan2Applic is distributed as freeware for the operating systems Microsoft Windows, Apple OS X and Linux.

Split2Events - a tool for preparing PANGAEA import files

Split2Events is a software tool to split one file with data from several events into several files, one for each event. The resulting folder with a number of files can automaticaly be imported with the Massenimport routine of 4D. But it can also be useful to configure a complex import file outside 4D. Split2Events may also extract a list of unknown parameters and create a parameter import file.

PanConverter - a tool for data conversion and recalculation, written to convert special data collections to standard import format used by PANGAEA
