Write an archiver for USGS U.S. Wind Turbine Database

[cmgosnell]

Motivation and context:

Briefly describe the dataset. What is it, and why do we want to archive it regularly?
The United States Wind Turbine Database (USWTDB) provides the locations of land-based and offshore wind turbines in the United States, corresponding wind project information, and turbine technical specifications.

Include a link to the dataset webpage and any metadata documentation.

Notes/Quirks

• Most recent and legacy versions: The most recent version is on the here, but there are many versions stored here. Ideally we'd archive it all! Which would require doing a special grab of the most recent version.
• Publishing cadence (aka partitions): this dataset has been published quarterly-ish since 2018.
• Link pattern: Zip files for each version. It looks like sometime within the first month of the quarter (01/04/07/10) they publish the data. the file names include full dates of when it was published. Also the _v{*} looks like it gets updated each year.

Requirements for archiving

To be archived on Zenodo, a dataset must be:

• published under an open license that permits reuse and redistribution
• less than 50Gb in size (when zipped)
• relevant to energy modelling and research

Checklist for archive creation

Based on the README documentation on creating a new archive:

Tasks

Preview Give feedback

1. Define the dataset's metadata
2. Implement archiver interface
3. Test archiver locally
4. Test uploading to Zenodo
5. Manually review archive before publication
6. Finalize archive (only core Catalyst developers can complete this step)
7. Automate archiving

Include a link to the published sandbox archive for review.
