Overview

The CompareCropPatternTSFiles command (for StateCU) compares two StateCU crop pattern time series files (*.cds) to determine data differences. Time series values are formatted as strings using the precision and are checked for differences. The list of objects from the first file is used as the "master". Currently, CU Locations and crops at a location that are found in the second file but are not in the first are ignored.

Output is printed to the log file.
