# `Zoneinfo.Meta`
[🔗](https://github.com/smartrent/zoneinfo/blob/v0.1.8/lib/zoneinfo/meta.ex#L1)

Metadata derived from TZif information

The metadata here is mostly useful for checking the quality of the TZif files that
were loaded.

# `t`

```elixir
@type t() :: %Zoneinfo.Meta{
  earliest_record_utc: NaiveDateTime.t(),
  latest_record_utc: NaiveDateTime.t(),
  record_count: non_neg_integer(),
  time_zone: String.t(),
  tz_string: String.t() | nil
}
```

Zoneinfo.Meta contains information about one time zone

* `:time_zone` - the name of the time zone
* `:tz_string` - if a POSIX TZ string is available, this is it
* `:earliest_record_utc` - the UTC time of the earliest time zone record
* `:latest_record_utc` - the UTC time of the latest time zone record
* `:record_count` -- the number of records
