Table 3 2 shows the frequency of occurrence of elements of the Metadata Contact Responsibility / Parties for fifteen seventeen collections in the CMR. The data indicates that fourteen sixteen of the collections include the name of the organization that is responsible for the metadata (gmd:organisationName) and a roleCode (gmd:role/gmd:CI_RoleCode) for the organization. In general, no contact information is provided for these organizations although the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) Simple, Scalable, Script-based Science Processing Archive (GSFCS4PA) collection includes more complete metadata contact information in roughly 90% of the records.
