6.2.12 Aiding human readability

BWARM data feeds created in accordance with this standard are designed so that they can be ingested and processed automatically. However, when establishing a new data feed, it may be helpful for humans to be able to read a file in a BWARM data feed. The same may be true for error handling during normal operations.

It is recommended for each file used in a BWARM data feed created in accordance with this standard, to include as the first line of each file an additional Record that sets out, once, all the Cell “headings” for the Record used in that particular file. The first Cell of the “headings” Record shall be populated with the relevant Cell name preceded by a hash symbol, #.
