Element Description

The Cloud Cover element provides a measurement, in percentage, of how much of the area of a granule is obscured by clouds. Because the definition of a cloud can vary from one data provider to another, this measurement is generally dataset-specific. 

Best Practices


Examples:

Cloud Cover: "50.0"

Cloud Cover: "0.00"

Cloud Cover: "30.0"

Element Specification

The Cloud Cover element is not required. (Cardinality: 0..1)

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).
