File Details

These files are offline forms that should be used to provide metadata (documentation) for data submitted to the GCE Information Management Office until web-based submission forms are available. The spreadsheet version (Microsoft Excel file) provides more detailed information and should be used if possible, but a plain text file is also available as an alternative. More information about GCE data submission is available at http://gce-lter.marsci.uga.edu/public/im/data_submission.htm.

The data table can be included in the form with the metadata, or provided separately if prior arrangements are made with IM staff for parsing data from specialized formats (e.g. data logger files, real-time data telemetry or lab-specific storage formats).
