Element Description
The Short Name element contains an abbreviated name for a dataset. The Short Name and Version Id combination must be unique per provider in the CMR.
Best Practices
The Short Name is an abbreviated or shortened name used to identify a dataset. The Short Name, in combination with the Version Id, uniquely describe a metadata record in the CMR per data provider. While the Short Name can be used as a unique identifier for a dataset, it should never be the same as the dataset DOI.
The Data Product Development Guide for Data Producers offers the following information about Short Names:
"EOSDIS developed the standard Earth Science Data Type (ESDT) [50] naming conventions to provide
an efficient way to archive data products by name and for convenience in working with toolkits. The
short name is an abbreviated version of the product name. A limit of 30 characters is
recommended, where alphanumeric and “_” are the only acceptable characters. The restriction on
the usage of spaces and special characters is to ensure compatibility with Earthdata Search and
other search systems. The short name is included in the metadata as the global attribute
ShortName and included in the data product’s documentation. Data producers should contact the
DAAC responsible for the data product’s archiving to check if there are additional restrictions on
short names."
Examples:
"AIRIBQAP"
"gpmrgachiphx"
"FIFE_RAIN_30M_2"
Element Specification

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).
