DEIMS Content Type Best Practices

Naming convention for fields

field_[contenttype]_[labelabbreviation][_optional]

Where [_optional] is optional and depends on the field type:

Node reference: _ref
Node referrer: _rfrr
Conditional field: _cf

Further notes:

The Label of a field is inconsequential in terms of generating EML

Suggestion Improvements:
- Use Modal Frame and Node Relationship for creating children nodes from parent (leverages Node Reference field)
- Use conditional fields to simplify Variable node/add form
- Use custom module for separating Code-Definition field
- Use OpenLayers vs Geo or Location
