Element Specification

Providing the Collection Data Type element is optional (Cardinality: 0..1)

SCIENCE_QUALITY

NEAR_REAL_TIME

OTHER

Metadata Validation and QA/QC

All metadata entering the CMR goes through the below process to ensure metadata quality requirements are met. All records undergo CMR validation before entering the system. The process of QA/QC is slightly different for NASA and non-NASA data providers. Non-NASA providers include interagency and international data providers and are referred to as the International Directory Network (IDN).

Please see the expandable sections below for flowchart details.

Dialect Mappings

element provides the information required to properly cite the collection in professional scientific literature. This element provides information for constructing a citation for the item itself, and is not designed for listing bibliographic references of scientific research articles arising from search results. A list of references related to the research results should be in the Publication Reference element.

Best Practices

There are seventeen sub-elements that comprise Collection Citations:

Creators: The name of the organization(s) or individual(s) with primary intellectual responsibility for the collection's development.

Editors: The individual(s) responsible for changing the data in the collection.

Title: The title of the collection; this is the same as the collection Entry Title.

Series Name: The name of the data series, or aggregate data of which the data is a part.

Release Date: The date when the collection was made available for release.

Release Place: The name of the city (and state or province and country if needed) where the collection was made available for release.

Publisher: The name of the individual or organization that made the collection available for release.

Version:

Issue Identification: The volume or issue number of the publication (if applicable).

Data Presentation Form: The mode in which the data are represented, e.g. atlas, image, profile, text, etc.

Other Citation Details: Additional free-text citation information.

OnlineResource/Linkage: The URL of the website related to the online resource.

OnlineResource/Protocol: The protocol of the linkage for the online resource, such as https, svn, ftp, etc.

OnlineResource/ApplicationProfile: The application profile holds the name of the application that can service the data. For example if the URL points to a word document, then the applicationProfile is MS-Word.

OnlineResource/Name: The name of the online resource.

OnlineResource/Description: The description of the online resource.

OnlineResource/Function: The function of the online resource. In ISO where this class originated the valid values are: download, information, offlineAccess, order, and search.
