The SAFE Gazetteer

Description:
These files contain the gazetteer used to record distinct, repeated sampling sites across the SAFE Project, including locations in the experimental landscape, the converted landscape surrounding SAFE and forest reserves and protected areas. The data files include a geojson file containing the sampling locations and their associated metadata and a CSV file containing recognized aliases for official gazetteer locations. The data in the csv alias file is deliberately not included in this metadata spreadsheet as the data is primarily used in this CSV format by data checking and other processes. The GIS geometries in the geojson file (using WGS84 coordinates) are taken from a wide range of original GIS files collected from researchers at SAFE: the source files are indicated in the geometry metadata and most will also be available in the SAFE Zenodo community. The files also include the R code used to collate the geometry data from the various source files and create the geojson and aliases files.This update adds new LOMBOK river transects (RRSJI1-6, RR8, RR10, RR19, RR20)
Project: This dataset was collected as part of the following SAFE research project: SAFE CORE DATA

This file only contains metadata for the files below
gazetteer.geojson
Description: A geojson file containing officially recognised SAFE Project sampling locations, along with basic metadata.
This file contains 1 data tables:

SAFE Gazetteer (described in worksheet gazetteer.geojson)

location_aliases.csv
Description: A CSV file containing pairs of official location names and accepted aliases, with an additional column showing where a location in an published dataset has been accepted as a gazeteer location
This file contains 1 data tables:

SAFE Gazetteer location aliases (described in worksheet location_aliases.csv)
Description: This file contains pairs of known aliases for locations and the matching official location ID. Aliases can be global or can be tied to a specific dataset ID.
Number of fields: 3
Number of data rows: Unavailable (table metadata description only).
Fields:

zenodo_record_id: location_aliases.csv (Field type: id)
location: An official SAFE gazetteer location name (Field type: id)
alias: A commonly used alternative alias for the location (Field type: id)

gazetteer_sf.R
Description: The R file used to generate the two gazetteer files from the source files. The source files are not included in this record as they are published under separate records.
