# TSG-QC - Installation - English version

## Prerequisite

TSG-QC  need a version of Matlab >= R2006b. The most recent version tested is R2018b (Windows or Linux)

## Cloning TSG-QC repository

Clone the repository:

   > git clone <https://git.outils-is.ird.fr/grelet/TSG-QC>

or getting the last zip archive:

<https://git.outils-is.ird.fr/grelet/TSG-QC/repository/archive.zip?ref=master>

* Install the free toolbox m_map (>= 1.4) under Matlab
    see: <http://www2.ocgy.ubc.ca/~rich/map.html>
    see BUGS file for Matlab version > R2009
    with Matlab version >= R2015, install the latest m_map version 1.4h,
    BITMAX starts not to be used, changed to FLINTMAX...
    Install GSHHS high-resolution coastline database files under m_map\private
    from <http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/shorelines/data/gshhs/>

* Install Matlab toolbox seawater from web site :
    <http://www.cmar.csiro.au/datacentre/ext_docs/seawater.htm>

* For Matlab versions prior to R2008a

  * Install mexnc toolbox from :
      <http://mexcdf.sourceforge.net/downloads/>
       see also link below <http://www.ird.fr/us191/spip.php?article18>

  * Install the toolbox NetCDF from :
      <http://mexcdf.sourceforge.net/downloads/>

* For Matlab versions >= R2008b, the program uses the native NetCDF
    implementation available. You must delete any link to the old mexnc toolbox in your Matlab path.

* Installation of climatology files

    The software works with WOA05, WOA13 or ISAS13 climatology (to choose from the main menu options/preferences).

    The files are automatically downloaded by the program in the first use but you can copy manually the files in one of your Matlab directories

    These files are available from:
