AADR Exports

AADR exports provide release-pinned human ancient-DNA evidence for country and regional products. They preserve the distinction between the upstream release, its annotation panels, repository selection, and the rows admitted to each geographic bundle.

Release Identity

The checked-in manifest identifies:

Property	Value
persistent dataset identity	doi:10.7910/DVN/FFIDCW
requested release	v66
Dataverse release	10.0
release timestamp	2026-04-13T04:33:11Z
captured annotation panels	1240K and HO

data/aadr/v66/release_manifest.json also records the Dataverse file identifiers, filenames, sizes, and MD5 digests. This packet establishes which upstream objects the repository captured; the v66 directory name alone is not sufficient release provenance.

The 1240K annotation file contains 23,250 data rows and the HO annotation file contains 27,755 data rows, excluding their headers. These are panel rows, not two disjoint censuses of unique people. Samples can occur across panels, so adding the counts would manufacture a false individual total.

From Release To Country Product

flowchart LR
    Release["AADR dataset and v66 manifest"] --> Panels["1240K and HO annotations"]
    Panels --> Normalize["typed repository records"]
    Normalize --> Scope["country and product selection"]
    Scope --> Bundle["bundle manifest and summary"]
    Bundle --> Samples["sample CSV, GeoJSON, and Markdown"]
    Bundle --> Localities["locality CSV"]

Each Nordic country product carries a versioned bundle, summary, sample table, sample GeoJSON, human-readable sample view, and locality export. The bundle is the membership authority. A row present in the captured release is not automatically a member of every geography.

Reading The Exports

Surface	Use it for	Do not infer
release manifest	upstream identity and file integrity	geographic admission
sample CSV	structured admitted sample rows	unique-person totals across panels without identity review
sample GeoJSON	admitted spatial view at declared precision	exact excavation coordinates from display alone
locality CSV	locality-oriented grouping and inspection	one-to-one equivalence between locality and sample
summary JSON	product counts and scope summary	source completeness
bundle JSON	versioned artifact membership and relationships	scientific authority independent of its evidence rows

Human aDNA is a direct-evidence family within its declared sample contract, but it does not settle locality or chronology conflicts in animal evidence, validate pollen chronology, or turn nearby archaeology context into a causal relationship.

Worked Member: RISE175.SG

The Sweden v66 bundle contains genetic ID RISE175.SG as one unique sample even though its accession lineage names both the 1240k and ho panels.

Field	Governed value	Meaning
genetic ID	RISE175.SG	release-owned member identity used across the export
master ID	9519	additional AADR identity retained for resolution
panels	1240k, ho	two source-panel memberships, not two people
locality	Abekås I, Sweden	release metadata selected into the Sweden product
geometry	13.6, 55.397	GeoJSON longitude then latitude
source chronology	1396-1131 calBCE (3025±30 BP, OxA-28998)	original wording retained with the row
normalized interval	3113-3353 BP	comparison representation derived from the declared mean and deviation basis

flowchart LR
    Release["AADR v66"] --> K1240["1240k member"]
    Release --> HO["HO member"]
    K1240 --> Identity["RISE175.SG / master 9519"]
    HO --> Identity
    Identity --> Sweden["one Sweden bundle sample"]
    Sweden --> Feature["one GeoJSON feature"]

This is why panel row counts cannot be added as individual counts. The bundle reports 416 Sweden rows in each panel but 416 unique samples, because identity resolution collapses the two panel memberships at the product boundary. A downstream merge on coordinates or display labels would not preserve that decision.

Audit Or Reuse A Row

Carry the country bundle, sample identifier, panel and release identity, structured row, locality information, spatial and temporal semantics, and source citation together. Before combining country exports, deduplicate by the governed sample identity rather than by coordinates, labels, or panel-row counts.

The captured release material lives under data/aadr/v66/. Continue to AADR source guidance for collection and normalization, reports for bundle structure, and maps for spatial interpretation.
