defaultFlag
tries to suggest a reasonable default flag
scheme
for use by handleFlags
. It does this by looking for an item
named flagScheme
in the metdata
slot of object
.
If that is found, and if the scheme is recognized, then a numeric
vector is returned that indicates bad or questionable data. The recognized
schemes, and their defaults are as below; note that this is a very conservative
setup, retaining only data that are flagged as being good, while discarding
not just data that are marked as bad, but also data that are marked as
questionable.
for argo
, the default is flag=c(0, 2:9)
, i.e. retain only data flagged as 'passed_all_tests'
for BODC
, the default is flag=c(0, 2:9)
, i.e. retain only data flagged as 'good'
for DFO
, the default is flag=c(0, 2:9)
, i.e. retain only data flagged as 'appears_correct'
for WHP bottle
, the default is flag=c(1, 3:9)
, i.e. retain only data flagged as 'no_problems_noted'
for WHP ctd
, the default is flag=c(1, 3:9)
, i.e. retain only data flagged as 'acceptable'
defaultFlags(object)
An oce object
A vector of one or more flag values, or NULL
if object
metadata
slot lacks a flagScheme
(as set by initializeFlagScheme
),
or if it has a scheme that is not in the list provide in “Description”.
