Introduction
The Menyanthes file format is a special CSV ASCII format that can be imported by Menyanthes. In FEWS it can be used to export sample time series.
Each export file consist of 3 parts, first a header followed by a description of the series and last the timeseries.
Each timeseries value in the timeseries content is written as a separate row in the file.
- Each row contains information on the location ID and Qualifier id, date and time, value, flag
- Only non-missing values are printed.
