Jade's data delivery on 4/24/14

[jbeaulie]

On 4/24/14 Jade sent us an e-mail with many data files. Where do you want to store these files? Perhaps "originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade"?

[mjpdenver]

I put the files from the email with 48 files in a new folder originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade0424a and the files from the email with 15 folder in originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade0424b

When these are processed a new summaryStatus list will be created.

Initially, these file formats look familiar. Fingers crossed.

At the risk of having two topics in a single issue, I am going to leave this open until the files are processed.

The files in the ‘jade0424b’ directory were sent to us on 2/27/2014. On 2/28/14 you sent an e-mail stating that the files would be kept at EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade (see below). It looks like you have the files stored in two places, which may be why the contents of ‘jade0424b’ appear to be replicates.

All files in the ‘jade0424a’ directory were sent to us on 4/24/2014. I suggest the following directory structures:

Phytoplankton-Data-Analysis/originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade/jade022814

Phytoplankton-Data-Analysis/originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade/jade042414

The files sent on 2/27 were placed into the folder labeled jade/ and are already processed. I will delete the jade0424b/ directory from my computer. I can can create a new folder as described below - but I am going to make that a lower priority since the old files have been processed and I am actively working on the new files.

Following the directory structure conventions we adopted since this Issue was opened (i.e. see Issue 39 and e-mail sent to you on 7/16/14), I moved the data described above to:

Phytoplankton-Data-Analysis/originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade022714

Phytoplankton-Data-Analysis/originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade042414

At this point I believe the folder titled 'jade' should be empty and can be deleted. My directory now looks like this: Phytoplankton-Data-Analysis/originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data

I don't think Matt ever resolved this fully. The directory structure on Matt's computer (which I copied to mine), looks like this:

It's likely that the 'jade' folder contains what you have in your jade022714 folder, and the 'jade0424a' folder is the same as your jade042414 folder. An easy way to check would be for you to open R, define two variables which contain the paths to both folders, and use the list.files() function. Example:

path1 < "Desktop/Phytoplankton-Data-Analysis/originalData/algae/EFR Phytoplankton Data/jade022714" list.files(path1)

Can you try that and either email me the file names in each folder, or copy/paste them here?

Directory structure on my machine is now aligned with yours. Closing this issue.
