Following implementation of #203 there is some redundancy in the metadata that sparta spits out. Some information is contained in both MD and data_metrics (which itself is a list within MD), and some of these are also stored as slots in out, e.g. min_year, max_year, nsites, species_observations. Someone should spend time looking at the various elements and rationalising these into something more coherent.
