Description
This guideline requires that when the software produces some data, the metadata attached should follow the Argo conventions.
For instance, if a software produces a salinity variable, it should be named `PSAL`.
The Argo conventions and vocabulary are encoded in a collection of reference tables and associated values (and possible mapping between them).
More information on these data are available here: https://www.argodatamgt.org/ArgoVocabulary.html
Following this guideline can be _hard coded_ in the codebase. However, the software should use the vocabulary server whenever relevant to ensure up-to-date information (see guideline #60 )
