We are pleased to announce the <a href=\"https:\/\/agsapi.bgs.ac.uk\/\">application has been updated<\/a> and is now ready for production use. The online tool is easy and free to use, offering the ability to validate AGS files against both the official AGS data format rules (v4.x) and the National Geoscience Data Centre (NGDC) data submission requirements. It also converts AGS data format files to and from MS Excel format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This work has been made possible by the efforts of the AGS Data Format Working Group, who have updated the underlying <a href=\"https:\/\/gitlab.com\/ags-data-format-wg\/ags-python-library\">official AGS Python library<\/a>. As we use the same library, the AGS rules are checked and the response is identical to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ags.org.uk\/data-format\/ags-validator\/\">official AGS validator<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to use the AGS file utilities tool<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The application offers two ways to interact with the available tools: a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) and an application programming interface (API) for programmatic access. Files are not saved or stored by the AGS file utilities tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Web GUI<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To validate an AGS file you need to specify three parameters:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>which AGS version to use or the version specified in the file<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>which validation to run: AGS rules, BGS submission requirements or both<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>how you would prefer the results: HTML, plain text or JSON<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can then select and upload one or more AGS files (50 Mb maximum) for validation (Figure 1). To convert files, select and upload either AGS files (.ags) or MS Excel files (.xlsx) files and the other file type will be returned. There is an option to sort the output worksheets alphabetically, but doing this means the original group order will be lost.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure  class=\"img-wrap\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/ags4-api.png\" data-toggle=\"lightbox\" data-footer=\"&lt;p&gt;Figure 1\u00a0 \u00a0Web GUI interface.

Geotechnical data is of vital importance not only to BGS but also to UK PLC, to gain a greater understanding of the subsurface for planning, <a>engineering<\/a> and modelling. It is the recommended file type for submission of geotechnical data to the NGDC, which is managed by BGS, to collect and preserve key geoscientific data, and make it available in the long-term to a wide range of users and for the benefit of future geotechnical projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AGS data validation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2021, the AGS Data Management Working Group released an AGS v4.x Python library, which offers AGS data format validation for AGS version 4.x and file conversion between .ags and .xlsx. This is a fantastic resource for the AGS community and offered the first official AGS file validation capability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This library is released under an open license allowing others, including BGS, to incorporate the features offered in new applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">AGS v3.x<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For users who are creating or discovering AGS v3 files that they would like to submit to the NGDC, we continue to host our <a href=\"https:\/\/webapps.bgs.ac.uk\/data\/ags\/validation\/index.cfm\">legacy AGS validation tool<\/a>. This performs data checking against rules set out in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bgs.ac.uk\/geological-data\/national-geoscience-data-centre\/deposit-data-with-ngdc\/#guidelines\">NGDC submission guidelines<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Open source<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In line with UKRI, the BGS Digital Strategy and the wider Government Technology Code of Practice and Digital Service Standard, the source code for the AGS file utilities tool application is available under open license and hosted on the <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/BritishGeologicalSurvey\/pyagsapi\">BGS GitHub<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Future work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We hope to continue to develop this tool and add new features in line with further development of the underlying AGS Python library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We welcome feedback from the user community.
