decide_entities() needs to not hardcode IDs #4

Open atn38 opened 2 years ago

right now we're hardcoding the list of core program dataset IDs into the function

and we need to be smarter about it

@kplumb18 One programmatic approach would be to use EDIutils to query for BLE datasets with the keyword "BLE LTER Core Program", but then the trouble comes when you want to just get the water/sediment ones, because there is no hard-and-fast way to differentiate those from the moorings.

And I can't think of any other robust approaches.

So, perhaps hardcoding is not so bad, for now.
