Def Data for each column of the data file are flagged with a single alpha-numeric code such that the first digit holds the first data column flag, the second digit holds the second data column flag, etc. Possible flags are 0-9, A-Z, a-z; however flag definitions are currently as follows: 0 - No known bad data; 1 - Known bad data: instrument malfunction/failure, loss of memory, loss of power, bio-fouling, electronic malfunction; 2 - Suspicious data (looks bad, but no known cause); 9 - Missing data (data column has a missing value code as defined in the metadata) [0-9A-Za-z]
