So for instance if I’m looking at morphology catalogues I might have a differently named column for 5 different fields that means the same thing, but in some of them it’s on a logarithmic scale and some it’s not. So if they name them differently, it’s not easy to tell this is the same kind of data. And one of the fields doesn’t even give a key for column names in their notes.
WTF does DS_w mean? Who knows! I have to look at every column of every field to rule it out, and convert stuff, and all of this.
And it’s like… just talk to each other! Hey guys, why don’t we all call this data X, and either log it or not!!
RAGE!!!!
