• Abstract:
  This is a file format dictionary created by the National Transportation Library's Data Services Team. This dictionary is used as a part of the Data Services Team's implementation of the Data Curation Network's (DCN) CURATED Workflow. This file format dictionary is used by the team during the cataloging of datasets, geodatabases, software, databases, and other supporting files to better help the public understand what the project files contain and how they can access them. In an effort to make research more open and FAIR, the entries often recommend open-source software so that these files may be accessible by all. This file format dictionary can be used by other institutions with citation for their own data curation and public access efforts.
