attribute	Platform_Type	description	String	(Required) A structure or vehicle designed to hold one or more sensors such that the intended oceanographic or atmospheric variable(s) can be monitored or measured in a manner designed for the ocean observing system or scientific hypotheses. Use terms listed in the IOOS Platform Vocabulary: http://mmisw.org/ont/ioos/platform (e.g. buoy, profiling buoy, moored buoy, wave buoy, fixed, offshore tower, profile)
attribute	Platform_Type	long_name	String	Platform Type
variable	Station_Deployment		String
attribute	Station_Deployment	description	String	(Required) The time when the station became operational. This can be determined by the first data record or an installation date. This indicates the first time the station was deployed - not the last or latest, but the first time - even if IOOS was not established yet. Accepted responses: Please provide a month and year (mm/yyyy). If the actual deployment date is not known then provide a year (yyyy), or "< 5 yr" (any date on/after 1/1/2013) or "> 5 yr" (any date on/before 12/31/2012) . If not available, please indicate why in the notes column.
attribute	Station_Deployment	long_name	String	Station Deployment (mm/yyyy, yyyy, < 5 yr, > 5 yr)
variable	Currently_Operational		String
attribute	Currently_Operational	description	String	(Required) Is the asset deployed and collecting data? Y = Yes (this includes seasonal buoys intended for redeployment). N = No (it was uninstalled/removed, or is offline with no intent to repair). O = Offline (temporary outage, with intent to repair or redeploy). U = Unknown (e.g. funding uncertainty for repair/redeployment, or operator's plans are unknown). If O or U, please indicate why in the notes column.

variable	Platform_Operator		String
attribute	Platform_Operator	description	String	(Required) IOOS Vocabulary definition: "Platform operator used as classifier or contact type; will often be the platform owner as well..." Akin to the Creator_name attribute in netCDF: "The person/organization that (primarily) collects the data." In general, the person/group/institution principally responsible for operating the station. Note that most of the time this is also the group that maintains the asset.
attribute	Platform_Operator	long_name	String	Platform Operator/Owner
variable	Operator_Sector		String
attribute	Operator_Sector	description	String	(Required) Use the IOOS Organization Societal Sector Vocabulary. (Academic, industry, tribal, nonprofit, gov_state, gov_federal, etc). Underscores required. http://mmisw.org/ont/ioos/sector

attribute	Platform_Maintainer	description	String	(Optional) The organization with the primary responsibility for providing the maintenance of the platorm/sensors today (e.g. University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee). In most cases this will be the same as the platform operator. This is the group that conducts maintenance activities - this does not include the group that funds the maintenance (that group should fall under Platform Funder/Sponsor).
attribute	Platform_Maintainer	long_name	String	Platform Maintainer
variable	Data_Manager		String
attribute	Data_Manager	description	String	(Optional) The organization that is responsible for the data management activities. This does not mean the organization that funds the data management.

variable	Variable_Names		String
attribute	Variable_Names	description	String	(Required) A list of observed variables that are associated with each station, with the depth(s) of the each measured oceanographic variable in parentheses following the variable name. 'Depths' not required for meteorological variables. If the variable is ONLY measured at the surface and no other dpeth, you do not need to include any parentheses/depth - just state the variable name. Use CF names (https://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-standard-names/47/build/cf-standard-name-table.html), and if the variable is not available in CF then use the IOOS parameter vocabulary (http://mmisw.org/ont/ioos/parameter). Accepted responses: sea_water_temperature (1 m, 10 m, 40 m), or sea_water_temperature (sfc, 10 m, 40 m), or sea_water_temperature (sfc and 2 depths), or mass_concentration_of_chlorophyll_in_sea_water. The latter means chlorophyll is measured only at the surface. Please provide all variables for the asset in a single cell in the spreadsheet (do not separate by row).
attribute	Variable_Names	long_name	String	Variable Names + Water Column Depth Of Measurement In Meters [CF Name (# M, # M) Or CF Name (mult) Or CF Name (# Depths)].
