Re: CSVW in PDF

Jeremy – an ideal use case would be something like the PDF files
in http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate-guide/science/uk/obs-projections-impacts   -- the “country level fact sheets” – where you have the data that is used to create the figures and tables, but they’re not currently published.

We could add, for each table or chart or map an attached data file.  If you take, for example, http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate-guide/science/uk/obs-projections-impacts

Page 14 there is figure 2, MAM and DJF. Could we get the data that went into making this figure, and then attach them?

Page 15 there is Table 1, Temperature Extremes.
It’s a PDF file with lots of data….. a very interesting use case.

How are these PDFs produced, and can the data be injected back in a machine readable form?
