Figure 4. Example of using related identifiers to link related samples and information. Related identifiers are listed in blue. All metadata can be provided at the sample level or by providing separate files (depicted as boxes) for higher-level collections of samples, sampling events, methods, and/or locations. When providing separate spreadsheet files, each file (e.g., locations file) contains a row for each unique related identifier (e.g., location ID), with the associated metadata fields (e.g., location description) as columns. Unique identifiers for these related, higher-level entities then allow associating relevant metadata (e.g., latitude and longitude) with individual samples. This practice is flexible and optional, depending on data management needs and preferences.
