🐟 The repository is structured as follows:

• input_datasets contains processed data files (not standardized) that have been sent to the IYS Data Scientists.
• output_datasets contains the individual integrated datasets specific to a data type (i.e. bridgelog, trawl, specimen, CTD).

These datasets are aggregated and integrated within the IYS_Integrated_Data_Collection_Vx workbook, with x being the latest released version.

• archived_versions contains older versions of the IYS_Integrated_Data_Collection.xlsx file. Any changes between versions are recorded in the Changelog.
• scripts contains the code used to format and integrate the input datasets into the individual output datasets and the master file.
