create_dic: Variable dictionaries for metadata
In sapfluxnet/sapfluxnetQC1: Package with functions related to sapfluxnet project data

Description Usage Arguments Details Value See Also

create_dic creates a dictionary containing metadata variable names and expected class. It is intended as an internal function.

1	create_dic(dic_name, parent_logger = "test")

dic_name

Name of the metadata sheet of which dictionary is needed. It must be one of site_md, stand_md, species_md, plant_md or environmental_md.

After loading metadata sheets, introduced variables and their classes must be checked in order to ensure data correctness. For that, we need dictionaries containing all the expected variables and their corresponding classes to compare. This function works inside of qc_col_class, so there is no need to call it directly

A named list, variable names being the index and class the value
