Here we review issues related to OceanGliders (OG) format and vocabularies. A discussion section is also available for any question or comment related to OG format and vocabulary.
You can find the most recent version of the OG format
A sub-group of the OceanGliders data management team will be in charge of reviewing the issues.
It is requested to provide a detailed explanation of the issue with an example. Suggestions can be added to the issue.
The team will analyze the issue formally. If the issue is not detailed enough or if there is no example associated with the issue, the issue will be rejected. If the issue is accepted for review, then the team will study it and provide an answer. The issue can lead to a modification of the format or not. If there is no consensus on the solution, the suggested solution will be rejected and the format will remain unchanged. However, a new branch can be created to demonstrate the benefit of the solution. The same issue can be submitted again with a demo.
Any accepted issue will be considered in the future version of the OG format and vocabulary collections. The format will be released every year with the accepted issue. The release is planned for January each year. Issues accepted in September should be implemented into the new format.
