Overview

The arctool project project provides tools for archiving (scientific) data. It aims to help in three areas:

1. Adding structure and meta data to your project and files

2. Verifying the integrity of the files in your project

3. Creating archives for long term storage

Design philosophy

The tools in this project should produce outputs that can be understood without access to these tools. This is important as it is likely that the outputs of from these tools may outlive these tools.
