Somnopose data in OSCAR (time shift)

[georgelewisray]

Problem: 
Somnopose data is time shifted when into OSCAR.
The shift amount corresponds to my time zone EDT (-5 hours from Greenwich).


I am using Somnopose to: (a)  track sleep position and then (b) import the data into OCSAR
This same problem was experienced with Sleepyhead but at the time I was feeling much better and did not pursue it and put Somnopose aside. Since then I have had a big relapse into super fatigue and will be upgrading to a BiLEVEL any day now. This motivates me to pursue the possibility of positional factors. 
The developer of Somnopose is said to be available and responsive but I have decided to ask the question here first. The local time is included in the data file so time zone is being accounted for at some level.

   

   

Thanks,
George

DATA COLUMNS IN ATTACHMENT                    

Timestamp: Time and date of the data sample (as seconds since the first instant of 1 January 2001, GMT)                    

Orientation: Sleep position, represented by side-to-side angle of the device in degrees, -180 to 180. Zero for face up, positive values for facing right, negative values for facing left.                    

Inclination: Upright angle of the device (and user) in degrees, 0 to 180. Zero for an upright position (e.g., user standing), 90 for a horizonal position (user lying down), 180 for the unlikely upside-down situation.                   

Time_of_day: Time of the data sample as hours, minutes, and seconds, derived from the Timestamp value, using the device's time zone setting. It gives no additional information, but is provided in a human-readable format for convenient reference.                    

Date: Date of the data sample as year, month and day, derived from the Timestamp value. It gives no additional information, but is provided in a human-readable format for convenient reference. To reduce file size, this is not included on every line.

I was unaware that anybody still used the Somnopose or that it had a time problem.
It is likely that it is the same problem the oximetry data had, so I will look into that and get it fixed for the next release.

Thanks for letting us know.
