Currently thinking:

\csv
\csv\project-summary.csv - Basic data about the project by year
\csv\rain-summaries - Rain measurements over time for each field by year
\csv\rain-summaries\rain-summary-2014.csv - Rain measurements over time for each field in 2014
\csv\rain-summaries\rain-summary-<y>.csv - Rain measurements over time for each field in <y>
\csv\fields - Various measurements for each field over time by field
\csv\fields\field_<n>\ - Various measurements for field #<n> over time
\csv\fields\field_<n>\field_status.csv - Field data like `crop planted`, field size, etc
\csv\fields\field_<n>\actions.csv - Actions such as planting/tilling/spraying, etc

I want to keep fleshing out the data and let that drive this further.

See #6, #5 , #2, #3 , and #4.

So far fields are more or less matching up, but rain gauges have been by year with gauges combined..

Best thing is to let it drive itself naturally in this fashion, so I want to close this.

Last though is right now I'm using \data instead of \csv. I do think uploading more than csv is an interesting idea but I am afraid of file size growth. I think .xls and .odf would probably be good? That way others can benefit from the formatted cells.. maybe the files will be too large though.. another repo perhaps? If only csv data will be here, then \data SHOULD be renamed to \csv..

A good compromise either way is \data\csv, then if other formats come in they will be welcome, but if they directly mirror the csv then the structure will look spidery but that's not too bad of a cost.
