<div dir="ltr">thanks Dan - and you are perfectly correct (and doing way better on your phone than I would be!)<div><br></div><div>The uses of attributeName and attributeLabel that you and Gastil described have been best-practice in the LTER network since ~2005 (the first edition of EML-BP), and were described that way in the EML docs from the very beginning. However, until we had a checker there was now way to inform folks of whether or not they were adhering to BP. The checker project was started by the LTER IMC, and adopted by EDI along with other PASTA software. The current place for checker info, background, resources, etc is <a href="https://github.com/EDIorg/ECC" target="_blank">https://github.com/EDIorg/ECC</a>. (Side note: the IMC Wired working is still working out how to mark deprecated area of the IMC website.)</div><div><br></div><div>If you aren't interested in details about EML, stop here. </div><div>Otherwise: </div><div>the reason that attributeName is the one to be associated with the file itself is that attributeName is a required element, and attributeLabel is optional. So applications can rely on attributeName being there, but not on attributeLabel. It is not likely that the contents of an attributeLabel can be easily evaluated, because it involves semantic interpretation. We are not anticipating having the resources for that.</div><div><br></div><div>best,</div><div>Margaret</div><div><br></div><div><div><div dir="ltr" class="m_-7625052500711046494m_-7466974736333723871gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font face="monospace, monospace"><span style="font-size:small">Margaret O'Brien</span><br><span style="font-size:small">ORCID: 0000-0002-1693-8322</span><br><span style="font-size:small">Information Management</span><br><span style="font-size:small">Marine Science Institute, UCSB</span><br><span style="font-size:small">Santa Barbara, CA 93106</span><br><span style="font-size:small">805-893-2071 (voice)</span><br><a href="http://environmentaldatainitiative.org" target="_blank">http://environmentaldatainitiative.org</a><br><a href="http://sbc.marinebon.org" target="_blank">http://sbc.marinebon.org</a></font><div><font face="monospace, monospace"><a href="http://sbc.lternet.edu" target="_blank">http://sbc.lternet.edu</a></font></div><div><br><div><pre><pre><br></pre></pre></div></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Fri, Jul 13, 2018 at 9:04 AM Dan Bahauddin <<a href="mailto:danbaha@umn.edu" target="_blank">danbaha@umn.edu</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">Hi Eda,<div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Sorry.

Hello all -<br clear="none">
The EDI data portal has added a new informational check to the suite of data congruence checks it runs on every data package submitted. This check is information only and the community felt it was valuable, so we are releasing it outside the regular twice-yearly schedule. A brief description of the new check is below; for more information contact <a rel="nofollow noreferrer" shape="rect" href="mailto:info@environmentaldatainitiative.org" target="_blank">info@ environmentaldatainitiative. org</a>.<br clear="none">

<h2 style="display:block;margin:0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:22px;font-style:normal;font-weight:bold;line-height:125%;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:left">About the check:</h2>
<h3 style="display:block;margin:0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:20px;font-style:normal;font-weight:bold;line-height:125%;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:left">Compare dataTable header row to attribute names</h3>
<p style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">Some programs (e.g., R, matlab) are able read in the first row (header row) of a data table and convert the names found there to variables in code. EML metadata contains additional information about the attribute (table column) that is often not in the table header. EML Best Practices state that the header row of a table should match the attributeNames in metadata - this check displays header row names of the data table and the attribute names provided in the EML metadata to facilitate a visual comparison of the two sets of names.</p>
<p style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">This check displays the header row alongside attribute names for the user to compare their content visually. The check does not attempt to ascertain if the header and attributeNames match because table headers may be composed of multiple lines, and the matching line cannot be identified.</p>
<p style="margin:10px 0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:16px;line-height:150%;text-align:left">Checks returning warn or errors are released twice a year. A quorum of users approved releasing checks that are strictly informative as soon as they become available because informational checks do not affect report results, but may be of use to data managers.</p>
<h2 style="display:block;margin:0;padding:0;color:#202020;font-family:Helvetica;font-size:22px;font-style:normal;font-weight:bold;line-height:125%;letter-spacing:normal;text-align:left">To be released: 2018 July 11</h2>
