On the other hand, we assess the availability of bacterial microarray data. Although this technology is being progressively displaced by RNAseq, it accounts for about half of the high-throughput gene expression records of bacteria, highlighting the importance of reevaluating all kinds of datasets.

Regarding biological metadata, we analyse the adherence of the 'characteristics' fields to a <tag>:<value> structured format, as reported in the GEO documentation. Nevertheless, we found poor to mid adherence to this format, again limiting our possibilities for programmatic access to metadata.

In addition to those concerns, we report several inconsistencies in the GEO documentation that, we argue, strongly limit our potential to automatically extract metadata from GEO records.
