Element Description

The temporal keyword Temporal Keywords element specifies a word or phrase which serves to summarize the temporal characteristics of a dataset.

Best Practices

Temporal Keywords is an optional element. There is not a controlled vocabulary for temporal keywords. If this element is utilized it is recommended that a consistent naming convention be developed for related records or for records from the same data center.

Examples:

TemporalKeywords: "Weekly"

TemporalKeywords: "Subannual"

TemporalKeywords: "Annual Climatology"

Element Specification

Providing the Temporal Keyword element is optional. Multiple Temporal Keywords may be provided (Cardinality: 0..*).

Model	Element	Type	Constraints	Required?	Cardinality
UMM-C	TemporalKeywords	String	1 - 80 Characters	No	0..*

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).

title	GCMD Metadata QA/QC

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 'Detailed_Variable' field length is not greater than 80 characters.

ARC Priority Matrix

Priority Categorization	Justification
Red = High Priority Finding	This element is categorized as highest priority when: The Temporal Keyword Keywords is not appropriate for the dataset.
Yellow = Medium Priority Finding	This element is categorized as medium priority when: A recommendation is made to change a Temporal Keyword Keywords to be more accurate or more consistent with related collections.
Blue = Low Priority Finding	This element is categorized as low priority when: A recommendation is made to add a relevant Temporal Keyword Keywords to the metadata.
Green = No Findings/Issues	The element is provided and follows all applicable criteria specified in the best practices section above.

ARC Automated Checks

ARC uses the pyQuARC library for automated metadata checks. Please see the pyQuARC GitHub for more information.
