Data File-Format Elements
HEADER
File headers provide metadata that describe the data in the file. A TOA5 header
contains the metadata described below. Other data formats contain similar
information unless a non-header format option is selected in the TableFile()
instruction in the CR1000 CRBasic program.
Line 1 – Data Origins
Includes the following metadata series: file type, station name, CR1000
model name, CR1000 serial number, OS version, CRBasic program
name, program signature, data‐table name.
Line 2 – Data-Field Names
Lists the name of individual data fields. If the field is an element of an
array, the name will be followed by a comma‐separated list of
subscripts within parentheses that identifies the array index. For
example, a variable named “values” that is declared as a two‐by‐two
array, i.e.,
Public
Values(2,2)
will be represented by four field names: “values(1,1)”, “values(1,2)”,
“values(2,1)”, and “values(2,2)”. Scalar (non‐array) variables will not
have subscripts.
Line 3 – Data Units
Includes the units associated with each field in the record. If no units
are programmed in the CR1000 CRBasic program, an empty string is
entered for that field.
Line 4 – Data-Processing Descriptors
Entries describe what type of processing was performed in the CR1000
to produce corresponding data, e.g., Smp indicates samples, Min
indicates minima. If there is no recognized processing for a field, it is
assigned an empty string. There will be one descriptor for each field
name given on Header Line 2.
