If you download the data in pcap format, you should have two files, a .pcap file and a .json file.
The downloaded pcap file contains lidar and imu packets captured from the network. You can read more about the IMU Data Format and Lidar Data Format in the Ouster Sensor Documentation. The JSON file contains metadata queried from the sensor TCP interface necessary for interpreting the packet data.
We will use SAMPLE_DATA_PCAP_PATH to refer to this pcap and SAMPLE_DATA_JSON_PATH to this
json in the following section. You may find it convenient to assign the paths appropriately in your
console.
In your open python session, save the two paths to variables:
>>> pcap_path = '{SAMPLE_DATA_PCAP_PATH}'
>>> metadata_path = '{SAMPLE_DATA_JSON_PATH}'
