---+ Overview

The user can upload individual OIFITS files and create a collection of their granules.

---+ Data extraction

The user provides either URL to OIFITS file hosted on a public Web server or upload files.

---+ Data mapping

Granules are extracted from OIFITS files by !OIFitsViewer and completed by data from the collection they are to be associated with.



---+ Usage

From the !OiDB [[http://oidb.jmmc.fr][Submit new data]], the user chooses the calibration level of the data to process: L2 for calibrated data and L3 for calibrated and published data.

The form and validation rules change with the calibration level.

Calibration level 2:

   * creation of a collection is optional.
   * the collection has no associated article.
   * the user can attach a set of up to 6 keywords to the collection.

Calibration level 3:

   * creation of a collection is mandatory (TODO).
   * the user has to provide at least one reference to an article through its bibcode (the abstract of the article may or may not be available at ADS).
   * the keywords of the collection are taken from the keywords of the article abstract.

Any collection must have at least a name and a title.

The user can add individual OIFITS files: 

   * the file are either downloaded from a public Web server
   * or from a local file that is uploaded to the service

Uploaded files are saved in a staging area within OiDB.




---+ Notes
