# \*U* UFO database reader
[](https://codeclimate.com/github/RR0/uDb/maintainability)
[](https://codeclimate.com/github/RR0/uDb/test_coverage)
[](https://dl.circleci.com/status-badge/redirect/gh/RR0/uDb/tree/master)
This is a [node](https://nodejs.org) application to read binary data file of the [\*U* UFO database](http://web.archive.orsg/web/20060701162044/http://www.larryhatch.net/).
As this database software can only run on old MS-DOS platforms and its maintenance has been discontinued,
it is important to allow users to access its data from modern platforms.
## Demo
A simple [form is available online](http://rr0.org/udb) to query the database using uDb.
## Setup
1. Make sure to have [node](https://nodejs.org) 18.18.0 or later installed on your computer.
1. Install uDb: `npm install -g @rr0/udb`
1. Run the software: `udb --help`
## Usage
### Command Line Interface
npm run cli -- [options]
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-V, --version output the version number
-db, --database [source] Database to read (defaults to udb).
Optional source, depending on database, can default to input/db/udb/data/U.RND or http://www.nuforc.org/webreports)
-s, --sources [sourcesFile] Sources file to read. Defaults to ./input/db/udb/data/usources.txt
-wm, --worldmap [wmFile] World map file to read. Defaults to ./input/db/udb/data/WM.VCE
-c, --count Maximum number of records to output.
-m, --match [&field=value...][|field=value...] Output records that match the criteria.
-f, --format [?params] Format of the output. default params are latLng=dms|dd, csv params are separator
-o, --out Name of the file to output. "memory" will enter interactive mode.
-v, --verbose Displays detailed processing information.
--debug Displays debug info.
If no files are specified, it will look for `input/usources.txt` as a source file, and `input/U.RND` as a data file in the current directory.
### Examples
#### Human-readable output in console
npm run cli -- -c 10 --verbose
will display the 10 first decoded records in the default format:
Using ts-node version 8.1.0, typescript version 3.4.5

For details about input/output formats, please check the [uDb Wiki](https://github.com/RR0/uDb/wiki).
#### Record for record that match some criteria
npm run cli -- --match year=1972&month=8&day=12
will output records about cases that occurred on August 12th, 1972.
npm run cli -- --match id=256|id=12
will output records #12 and #256.
You can use any [UdbInputRecord](https://github.com/RR0/uDb/blob/master/src/input/db/udb/UdbInputRecord.ts) property in a matching criteria.
## Web integration
For convenience, a [WebUdb](https://github.com/RR0/uDb/blob/master/src/web/WebUdb.ts) instance is provided to fetch data from a browser.
See an [example integration](https://github.com/RR0/rr0.org/tree/master/udb) into the [RR0.org](https://rr0.org/udb/index.html)
## To do
See [opened issues](https://github.com/RR0/uDb/issues).
## Acknowledgments
First I would like to thank Larry Hatch for his invaluable work in building this huge quality database.
Also I would like to thank several contributors (_EvillerBob_, _nablator_, _harpysounds_) of an ATS thread for their own analysis of the binary format.
Notably, they helped
[localizing the latitude/longitude bytes](http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread585935/pg8#pid22029387)
and corrected some wrong interpretations I made. Thanks also goes to [Adam](http://www.insidetruth.net)
who notified a longitude inversion error.
Last but not least, I want to thank [Isaac Koi](http://www.isaackoi.com) for his restless efforts in collecting and sharing UFO data with the permission of their owners.
This work could not have been possible without him, who managed to run the old software, perform an textual export of the data,
and got the permission from Larry's nephew (the holder of Larry's Power of Attorney) to share Larry's work.
Since then, this project has been credited by Adam Kehoe's paper "[Analyzing The Nearly Lost Hatch Database: 18,123
case files](https://blog.adamkehoe.com/hatch-udatabase)".
## Errata
Please note that some data from this database are incorrect:
* The Jaboticatubas case year is [1976](https://rr0.org/time/1/9/7/6/08/), not 1968.
This is particularly to note important to note, as Hatch ranked this case highly in both credibility and
strangeness.
* The "Pinheiro" case ([Colares sightings](https://rr0.org/science/crypto/ufo/enquete/dossier/Colares/)) month is July
(7) 1977, not March (3). This is particularly to note important to note, as Hatch ranked this case highly in both credibility and
strangeness.
