Schema: obs_alterations_deletions

The observations alterations deletions table records observations that were published (in an MPEC, DOU, or circular) and subsequently deleted. Once deleted, observations disappear from the obs_sbn table.

Note

The table alone cannot reproduce all different deletion files published daily (e.g. todelete.dat, removed_obs.dat).
