The Nansen Legacy template generator is designed based on experiences gained during the Nansen Legacy project (Arven etter Nansen - AeN). This template generator will be used to create spreadsheet templates that include columns based on both the NetCDF Climate and Forecast (CF) Metadata Conventions and Darwin Core.
CF Conventions: https://cfconventions.org/ Darwin Core: https://dwc.tdwg.org/
A separate sheet in the same file includes space to fill in global attributes based on CF and the Attribute Convention for Data Discovery (ACDD).
ACDD: https://wiki.esipfed.org/Attribute_Convention_for_Data_Discovery_1-3
The global attributes recommendations used in this template generator are in line with the recommendations for CF-NetCDF files that contribute to SIOS, as documented here: https://adc.met.no/node/4
This application was developed with Python version 3.8.10.

The application can be run using WSGI (flaskapp.wsgi) and has been developed using apache2.
