Is it necessary, useful to model Units (Watts) #7

Closed danfowler closed 6 years ago

danfowler commented 7 years ago

Current specifications do not have any allowance for specifying units. This might be informed by the deliverable.

@danfowler can this now be closed? Or, what actions can be taken in terms of specs, tooling, and this data?

danfowler commented 7 years ago

So, we could go ahead and just add a "units" (or "_units" to flag non-standard) to the fields as an example of Data Package/Table Schema flexibility. This could provide a start for a bigger discussion on units: https://github.com/frictionlessdata/specs/issues/216

This is I discussion for a future spec version, but not in scope for current pilot. Closing.
