The PI notes that the first 5.7 months of this file were not
usable, and that the speed sensor failed during three subsequent
periods:
lines 106 - 293 (1500 18 May 93 - 0500 03 Jun 93)
lines 886 - 1338 (1500 22 Jul 93 - 0700 29 Aug 93)
lines 1532 - 1638 (1100 14 Sep 93 - 0700 23 Sep 93)
These segments have been excluded from the speed series in CMDAC's
database. Direction is present throughout, however.
