• odvGetCDI is meant to inquire which odv files are available at the server. This function odvGetCDI returns a table with 3 columns: EDMO_code for the institute where the data originate, LOCAL_CDI_ID for the unique local identifier at the data centre and suffix for the suffix added to the file name in case where the LOCAL_CDI_ID has been split into temporel temporal or spatial tiles. The filenames are reconstructed at the server to be $ROOT$/data/<EDMO_code>/<LOCAL_CDI_ID><suffix>.txt. The files downloaded from SeaDataNet only have to be inserted into a folder with the name of the EDMO_code.
  odvGetCDI can return odvGetCDI also returns 3 meta-data columns: the meta-data time and location (lon,lat).
  odvGetCDI returns the table in efficient json (default) format for fast machine processing, or in human readable html format, by adding &responsedocument=datafiles=@mimetype=text/html&version to the url.

• odvGetParameters is meant to inquire files to find which variables are available in one file returned by odvGetCDI. It returns the P01 quantity code in sdn_name, the P06 units in sdn_units and the column name in column_name. The column_name has to be used in the subsequent plotting processes, it is equal to (i) the sdn_code for data columns, (ii) 'QV:" + sdn_code for flag columns and (iii) the standardized odv column name for the first 8 meta-data columns.
  odvGetParameters can return the table in efficient json (default) for fast machine processing, or in human readable html format, by adding &responsedocument=Parameters=@mimetype=text/html to the url.
