  metadata weekly report

Once a week, a global monitoring of Argo meta-data files is performed.

A list of 24 highly desirable meta-data parameters is defined.
For each float of each DAC, each missing or incorrect highly desirable parameter is pointed out.

Click on the left side button to get the weekly report.
