The site_id is the Joint Archive for Sea Level (JASL) convention, which can be seen in the inventory list (file inventory.lis) that also includes country, latitude, longitude, oceanm, time-span, and completeness index.
Some sites have more than one independent time segment, denoted by series v (a,b,c,etc.). The segments are independent because they are not linked to the same reference level.
Data access software has not been developed for this CD-ROM. The best way to access the data is to utilize the inventory lists (inventory.lis) which contains site locations, name, country, and various project IDs, the most important of which is the JASL ID which is embedded in the filenames.
