Geyser Observation Data Shortcomings

Rationale: Illustrate common problems and create a starting point for brainstorming solutions. While some of these issues may be impractical to solve, mobile computing, data loggers, crowdsourcing and/or field observation may afford methods for improvements.

• Missing data
  • not observed, so not reported
    • nighttime data
  • ambiguous closed intervals
• Misidentified eruptions
  • wrong geyser
  • wrong date or time (blunders vs fast/slow clocks)
  • splashing or other minor activity reported as an eruption
• Missing Attributes
  • Lack of duration
  • lack of height
  • lack of discharge
• Conflicting Data
  • Two or more reporters contradict
