The experiment metadata file is a tab-separated file containing a header line followed by the metadata for each experiment, one per line. There are some required columns and free-form optional columns.

Header:

  • Column 1: Should be "Filename"
  • Column 2: Should be "Name"
  • Column 3..N: Name of each metadata field
  • Links: adding "_link" to the end of the field name denotes a link for another column

Required Columns:

  • Column 1: Filename: the name of the data file for the
  • Column 2: Name: the name of the experiment

Optional Columns (in any order):

  • Description: a description of the experiment
  • Source: the source of the data file (i.e., JGI)
  • Version: the version number
  • Restricted: restrict the data from public access ("yes" or "no", default is no)
