Currently, Datamaps can either be specified as their own file or as a sheet in an assay or study.

This was meant as a goodie for user choice, but causes a lot of trouble in the implementations (as usual with information duplication). Maybe we should just stick to one of the two options?

Own file sounds reasonable to me as (i) it's a larger deviation from / addition to original ISA and (ii) may independently be of use (i.e. data dictionary to an external dataset imported to an ARC).

Meeting Notes from 05.03.2025:

  • Datamap only as its own file
  • Datamap can be part of every main-entity subfolder (assay, study, run, workflow)
  • Multiple Worksheets (?)
  • Tooling guidance:
    • Swate handles Datamap as its own file
    • Remove Datamap sheet from Assay editor
    • ARCitect displays Datamap as its own file (in Assay Folder) and supports CRUDE operations on it
    • ARCitect clicking on Datamap opens Datamap view in Swate
    • ARCtrl prioritizes read from file over deprecated read from sheet

Other discussion points:

  • Place Datamaps anywhere? No, because we want to limit the degrees of freedom to an extent where different users understand each others work based on the limits of the specification
  • ARCtrl: Move Datamaps out of Assay/Study? No(ish), Assay and Study files are anyways required by ARC spec, and tool handling Datamap and Assay separately is technically not a big deal
