Description of ProblemThe way that Resource Citation appears in UMM, MMT, and CMR needs to be improved. Definition of 'Resource Citation': the text that someone using the collection data in research should use to cite the collection in professional scientific literature. DAACs are using Citations according to different formats, and these are at the discretion of the DAAC manager. ESDIS provides guidance for Citations, and the MMT form needs to have some logic to enable these Citations to be formatted correctly. The addition of a Preview button could be added to the MMT form, which shows how the Citation would look, or the card for Citation needs to be revised. Title and Name are not required in the MMT form since these relate to the Collection by default, and logic needs to be introduced to make DOI and RelatedURL either-or. See https://earthdata.nasa.gov/earth-observation-data/data-citations-acknowledgements for individual DAAC citation rules. The UMM needs to be revised to ensure that any unnecessary fields have been removed. For each collection, the EDSC needs to display the citation, per NASA guidelines, and using the formats provided by each DAAC. Issues: 1.Citation block in UMM-C currently contains individual fields which are used to construct the full citation string; some of these fields are redundant with other collection metadata fields (e.g. dataset title, dataset version, dataset DOI, dataset publisher) 2.DAACs may construct citation strings using individual DAAC choice of order, as long as NASA-required information is present 3.Client (like EDSC) needs an algorithm to construct the citation string from the building blocks; algorithm varies by DAAC 4. Configuration Management: DAACs are required to list citation text on the landing page for the collection; if the citation text is also maintained in the CMR, we need to decide which is the authoritative source, and we need a process to keep the values in synch 4.
