MGC Dataset Structure

MGC is a flat data format that consists of a single data file with a fixed schema.

File Structure

MGC datasets are text files that consist of a header block followed by an arbitrary number of features.

Header attributes are single line name value pairs, separated by colons.

Features consist of a type name and attributes contained in a multiline { ... } block. Feature attributes are sometimes multiline, either a fixed number based on the attribute name or a dynamic number using a embedded { ... } block.
