GADS Open Source

NERC/OATI Upload

Instead of sending the GADS data to the GADS staff at NERC, the data is uploaded into the NERC webE-GADS web based application developed by Open Access Technology International, Inc. (OATI). WebE-GADS training sessions were provided to demonstrate how to use the OATI application. The final training session was recorded with a run time of approximately 96 minutes and covers an overview of the webE-GADS application, data reporting, and frequently asked questions. The training session can be found here:

Specific instructions for uploading the two GADS data files created by the GADS Open Source software are shown below:

		You will upload two files: Event file and Performance file.

		Unless you have changed the default location, these can be found in the same folder where the application is installed (typically C:\GADSOS).

		Event file: the file will be named *Event_NERC_Data_.txt**.

		Performance file: the file will be named *Perf_NERC_Data_.txt**.

		A successful upload for a quarter will be as shown as: Data Entered. Your Completed status will not be Yes until you upload your January-December data files.
