Repository

The repository details the structure of WIS2 topic hierarchy of NWP data, which are one branch of domain-specific topic subcategories beyond level 9.

• A top level CSV named topic-hierarchy.csv shows all levels with their descriptions.
• The topic hierarchy is organized as nested directory structure, following the values weather on Level 8 and prediction on Level 9. First two levels of directory (i.e. /weather/prediction/) is to indicate the branching from the main WIS2 topic hierarchy.
• The subsequent directory structure is the name of each level; and the csv file under each directory lists the values (the codelist) that this particular level can take.
