GLC data package standard

GLC metadata are expressed in a datapackage.json descriptor and linked core resources. The package follows the Frictionless Data Package specification with GLC-specific constraints. Properties marked with * are required. GLC 3.0.2 defines the core resources study, participants, datasets, devices, and device_datasheets; participant_characteristics is optional.
