About this Page

This page contains some initial ideas about how to organize data within Clowder for this project. 

Organization Ideas

Naming Conventions

Some ideas for how to name items that are placed in Clowder:

• When able, include the name of the Sensor in the title of Spaces, Collections, and Datasets
• Including the name of the sensor may make it is easier to search for items

Using the Sections Within Clowder

It would be good to have a general organization methodology moving forward.

This section will contain various ideas for organization.

Note: there are three basic sections within Clowder:

• Spaces
• Collections
• Datasets

One idea for utilizing and organizing these sections:

• Spaces
  • Named after each Sensor or a general category (e.g.: How To Documentation, Images, etc.)
  • Contains Collections
• Collections
  • Naming
    • Include the Sensor
    • Include any grouping information (e.g.: date range, etc.)
  • Contains Datasets
• Datasets
  
  • Naming
    • When possible, the name would include the name of the Sensor
    • Some of these are auto-generated, and are therefore auto-named
  • Contains raw data and parsed data
  • Should be placed in Collections

Organizations Tasks

General Tasks that may be completed:

• Removing any extraneous or duplicated data
• Where possible, moving and renaming items to fit the decided upon organization methodology
