* Data types

If no data type is given, varchar[255] may be assumed. As a guideline, projsyms and measurement varnames should be short (~30 chars or less) with no embedded spaces. For fields where a controlled vocabulary is shown, data type / char length may be inferred from the enumerated vocabulary.

A data type of 'text' indicates text of unlimited length. Content is stored in files; linkage is by filenames which contain embedded id info, the particulars of which are up to the application. Data table field contains 1 if there is text.
