2.26.0

New features 🎉

Missing value codes in the attribute editor ✍🏻

Identifying missing values in data is essential for data interpretation reuse. The Ecological Metadata Language (EML) standard provides a way to identify missing values for each attribute in a data file. With this release, MetacatUI's attribute editor enables adding and editing missing value codes and their explanations.

This new interface appears in the modal window when a user clicks on the "Describe" button next to each data file in the data package editor. Recognizing that data can have multiple missing value indicators, the interface allows users to add multiple missing value codes and explanations for each attribute.

Developer notes

New configuration options

• emlSystem - The text to use for the eml system attribute. The system attribute indicates the data management system within which an identifier is in scope and therefore unique. In previous versions of MetacatUI this was hardcoded to "knb" - this remains remain the default value.
