Processing

The general way to process this type of dataset is:

  1. Inspect the files and folder hierarchy where the PI uploaded them in their folder on the datateam server in /home/visitor
  2. Upload one of each type of file to the dataset to more easily annotate the attributes as normal
  • Alternatively, you can create and annotate the other entities fully in R if preferred
  1. Change the name and description of each file to be representative of all of the same type of files on the server.
  • The name should include the entire file path
  • You may need to reach out to the PI and have them explain the naming structure of the files
  1. Ask a Data Coordinator to move the data files from the ‘visitor’ folder to var/data’.
  2. Format the abstract using Markdown to include a link to the server using the dataset’s pre-issued DOI
  • The format is ‘http://arcticdata.io/data/[pre-issued DOI]’
  1. Once peer-reviewed, remove the files leaving the representative entities behind.
