csv2struct

Read a CSV metadata file and convert it into a metadata list.
A metadata file is a comma-separated text file (.csv) containing a line for each metadata
entry. The first comma-separated field in each line is the name of the
entry. The last field in each line contains the value to
be assigned to this metadata entry. The value can be a string or number
but is always saved as a string in the structure - it is up to downstream
users of the metadata to parse/decode the entries.

High-resolution movement-sensor tags typically include accelerometers
to measure body posture and sudden movements or changes in speed,
magnetometers to measure direction of travel, and pressure sensors
to measure dive depth in aquatic or marine animals. The sensors in these tags usually sample many times per second. Some tags include sensors for speed, turning rate (gyroscopes), and sound. This package provides software tools to facilitate calibration, processing, and analysis of such data. Tools are provided for: data import/export;
calibration (from raw data to calibrated data in scientific units);
visualization (for example, multi-panel time-series plots);
data processing (such as event detection, calculation of derived metrics like jerk and
dynamic acceleration, dive detection, and dive parameter calculation); and statistical analysis (for example, track reconstruction, a rotation test, and Mahalanobis distance analysis).
