Element Description

Note: This page is a draft/ work in progress

The Project element describes the scientific endeavor(s) with which the collection is associated. Scientific endeavors include field campaigns, flight campaigns, projects, interdisciplinary science investigations, missions, scientific programs, etc. This element may also cover a long term project that continuously creates new data setsdatasets.

Best Practices

Project names are important for data search and discovery. In order to provide a consistent search experience, project Project names are controlled by GCMD vocabulary maintained in the Keyword Management System (KMS). This is especially important for faceted searches by project Project name in the Earthdata Search Client. A list of valid project Project keywords can be found here: https://gcmdservicesgcmd.gsfcearthdata.nasa.gov/statickms/kmsconcepts/projectsconcept_scheme/projects.?format=csv?

Providing a Project is optional, however, it is highly recommended that a Project be provided in the metadata if possible. If a data set dataset is associated with more than one Project, then multiple Projects may be listed. Project also includes the 'Campaign' sub-element in order to support multiple sub-campaigns under the same projectProject. The following sub-elements are used to describe Project:

ShortName: If the Project element is provided, then the Short Name field is required. The project short name Project Short Name must be selected from the 'Short_Name' column in the GCMD Project Keyword list. Project names are controlled to ensure ensure consistency when searching for data using keywords or via the Project faceted search.

LongName: Providing a project long name in optionalProject Long Name is optional, however, it is encouraged that a long name be provided if one exists in the GCMD Project Keyword list. Providing a project long name Project Long Name is encouraged because the associated project short name Project Short Name may be comprised of acronyms. Project long names Long Names should be selected from the Long_Name column in the keyword list.

Campaign: The Campaign sub-element can be used to list the names of smaller projects/campaigns which fall within the scope of the Project listed. If necessary, multiple Campaigns may be associated with a single Project.

StartDate: The start date Start Date should indicate the date that the Project began. Providing the Start Date is completely optional.

EndDate: The End Date should indicate the date that the Project ended/will end. For Projects that are still underway, the End Date may be in the future. Providing the End Date for the Project is completely optional.

Examples:

ShortName: ISLSCP II

LongName: International Satellite Land Surface Climatology Project II

StartDate: 1986-01-01

EndDate: 1995-12-31

ShortName: MEaSUREs

LongName: Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments

Campaign: NVAP-M

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).

Manual Review
- Identify errors, discrepancies or omissions.
- Verify that all pertinent keywords have been applied.
- Verify that existing facets and other controlled keyword values are consistent and suitable for the data.
Automated Review
- Check that the field has been populated.
- Check that the field is populated with a valid value from KMS.
- Check that the field value is not a duplicate.
- Check that the field length is not greater than the maximum characters allowed for each sub-element.
- Check that the Date format is valid.

title	CMR Validation

The specific project must be unique within the collection.
The project short name must match with what is in the KMS.
If a granule has a project short name in it, it must match to one that is defined in the collection.
If removing a project from a collection, none of its granules can reference that project's short name.

ARC Automated Checks

Short Name

If a value is not provided, return is: "It is highly recommended that a Project Short Name be provided. Project Short Names are GCMD controlled and should be chosen from the following list: https://gcmdservices.gsfc.nasa.gov/static/kms/projects/projects.csv?ed_wiki_keywords_page"
If the provided value is in the incorrect position of the hierarchy, return is: "<provided value> is in the incorrect position of the project keyword hierarchy."
If the provided value does not conform to GCMD, return is: "<provided value> does not conform to GCMD."

Long Name

If a value is not provided, return is: "np"

If a short name is also absent as well as long name, return is: "In addition to adding a Project Short Name, recommend adding a Project Long Name (if applicable)."

If the provided value is in the incorrect position of the hierarchy, return is: "<provided value> is in the incorrect position of the project keyword hierarchy."

If the provided value does not conform to GCMD, return is: "<provided value> does not conform to GCMD."

Priority Categorization	Justification
Red = High Priority Finding	This element is categorized as highest priority when: The Project Short Name and/or Long Name keyword does not comply with the KMS. The Project Short Name and/or Long Name keyword does not exist in the KMS. A keyword(s) is placed in the incorrect position of the hierarchy (e.g. the Project Short Name is placed in the Long Name field). Keywords from two different KMS hierarchies are listed in the same hierarchy in the metadata (hierarchies cannot be mixed and matched). The Project and/or Campaign listed is incorrect for the dataset. The Start Date and/or End Date are incorrect for the Project.
Yellow = Medium Priority Finding	This element is categorized as medium priority when: There is no Project provided. While not required, providing a Project is highly recommended. A recommendation is made to add a Project Long Name when a long name exists in the KMS. Project and/or Campaign names are provided in an inconsistent manner across related datasets.
Blue = Low Priority Finding	Not Applicable
Green = No Findings/Issues	The element is provided and follows all applicable criteria specified in the best practices section above.
