That long string is the peak mz and intensities written as base64 encoded binary. The peaks (the "data" that the "metadata" is describing) are not meant to be human readable. Use a spectrum viewer like SeeMS (in pwiz) or Insilicos' Spectrum Viewer. Of course the various search and analysis tools are also able to read the peaks.

Hi Matt,

as the peak element? Since msconvert reported peaksCount=16, I was
expecting to see 16 mzs listed with 16 corresponding intensities. Was
I overexpecting?

Thanks,

I don't see what the problem is. There is a peak element there. What else are 
you expecting?
