ID of the IdMap used to convert external parameterId's and locationId's to internal parameter and location Id's. Each of the formats specified will have a unique method of identifying the id in the external format. See section on configuration for Mapping Id's units and flags.
useStandardName (since stable build 2012.02)
Optional. When the parser provides the standard name the parameter mapping can be done by matching the standard name. The standard name of the parameter in the time series set should be configured in the parameters.xml and the standard name should be provided by the import format. If not an error is logged. When also the maximumSnapDistance is configured no id map is required at all.
maximumSnapDistance (since stable build 2012.02)
Optional maximum snap distance in meters. When the parser provides location coordinates the location mapping can be done by matching the coordinates. The snap distance is the tolerance used to detect which internal and external coordinates are the same. Don't forget to configure the geoDatum when the input format does not provide the coordinate system for the locations. When the parses does not provide the coordinates for a time series an error is logged. Note: this option has no effect for grid data.
unitConversionsId
ID of the UnitConversions used to convert external units to internal units. Each of the formats specified will have a unique method of identifying the unit in the external format. See section on configuration for Mapping Id's units and flags.
