addCV: Extend controlled vocabularies

In RObsDat: Data Management for Hydrology and Beyond Using the Observations Data Model

Description

Add a term to one of the controlled vocabularies. The better way is to have CUAHSI add the term to the official vocabulary through their web-page: http://his.cuahsi.org/mastercvreg/

updateCV queries the official vocabulary again and updates the database tables.

CVtables returns a list of controlled vocabularies.

Usage

addCV(table, term, definition)
updateCV()
CVtables()

Arguments

table	Character: Name of the controlled vocabulary. Use CVtables for a list of tables.
term	Character: Term to be added.
definition	Character: Definition of the term

Value

Nothing returned
