Actions: An automated process extracted the data files from the compressed
tar archive file and validated the data files against the included manifest,
then discarded the original tar file. An automated process processed the
email message from the provider, and cross-referenced the tar file to the
email. Finally, an automated process copied the data files to the
data/0-data directory of this accession, extracted longitude and latitude
information from the data files, plotted a sample location map, and copied
the email to the about directory of this accession.

about/
This directory contains files generated by NODC with ancillary information
about the data submission.

0-email.txt -
  E-mail from submitter notifying NODC that they uploaded their data
  to the NODC FTP server. 

0156188_lonlat.txt -
  Contains sample locations for these data.  Each row contains the
  geographical position where these data were collected (longitude in the
  left column and latitude in the right column, both in degrees).

0156188_map.jpg -
  Sample location map for these data.

0156188_FGDC-STD001-1988.xml -
  Metadata record for the archived data, in Federal Geographic Data
  Committee (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata
  (FGDC-STD-001-1998) XML format.

data/0-data/
This directory contains the data and information files as NDBC submitted them
to NODC. The file naming conventions for these files are as follows:

Data file naming convention:
p<SERIAL NUMBER><DEPLOYMENT NUMBER>_<YYYYMMDD>.nc

where
p = Prefix identifying file;
<SERIAL NUMBER> = unique three character numeric serial number used to
identify glider; 
<DDDD> = four character numeric deployment number;
<YYYYMMDD> = date identifying the start date of dive;
.nc = netCDF file extension.

Some data files included in this package could not be processed.
This is normal and happens when the scientist decides to skip 
the profile after looking at the data. No processing is performed 
and only the raw data are recorded. The data provider marks such 
data files with the "skipped_profile" attribute. Since NODC could not 
process those data files, they were not used to determine locations 
or dates of observations.  The names of the "skipped" files are 
as follows:
  p0300104_20061209.nc
