ODFNames2oceNames {oce} | R Documentation |
Translate data names in the ODF convention to similar names in the Oce convention.
ODFNames2oceNames(ODFnames, ODFunits = NULL, columns = NULL, PARAMETER_HEADER = NULL, debug = getOption("oceDebug"))
ODFnames |
Vector of strings holding ODF names. |
ODFunits |
Vector of strings holding ODF units. |
columns |
Optional list containing name correspondances, as described for
|
PARAMETER_HEADER |
Optional list containing information on the data variables. |
debug |
an integer specifying whether debugging information is
to be printed during the processing. This is a general parameter that
is used by many |
The following table gives the regular expressions that define recognized
ODF names, along with the translated names as used in oce objects.
If an item is repeated, then the second one has a 2
appended
at the end, etc. Note that quality-control columns (with names starting with
"QQQQ"
) are not handled with regular expressions. Instead, if such
a flag is found in the i-th column, then a name is constructed by taking
the name of the (i-1)-th column and appending "Flag"
.

Any code not shown in the list is transferred to the oce object without renaming, apart from
the adjustment of suffix numbers. The following code have been seen in data files from
the Bedford Institute of Oceanography: ALTB
, PHPH
and QCFF
.
A vector of strings.
There are disagreements on variable names. For example, the “DFO
Common Data Dictionary”
(http://www.isdm.gc.ca/isdm-gdsi/diction/code_search-eng.asp?code=DOXY)
indicates that DOXY
has unit millmole/m^3 for NODC and MEDS, but
has unit mL/L for BIO and IML.
