Element Description

Abstract provides a brief description of the resource the metadata represents. This element allows markdown-formatted text and line breaks within the text are preserved. Additional information on markdown can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown. 


Best Practices

The Entry Title should be a descriptive, formal title of the dataset. The Entry Title should not be the same as the Short Name element. It is recommended that the Entry Title follow a mixed case capitalization scheme and that the use of special characters (such as underscores) and acronyms be kept to a minimum, if possible. In order to make titles descriptive, important elements about the data may be included, such as: parameters measured, geographic location, instrument, project, temporal coverage, etc.

Priority CategorizationJustification

This element is categorized as highest priority when:

  • The element is not included at all.
  • The element is included but is empty.
  • The value in the element is identical to the Short Name.
  • The value in the element is in an abbreviated format (similar, but not necessarily identical to, the short name).
  • The value in the element contains a spelling error.
  • The value in the element includes incorrect information about the dataset.

Not applicable


Not applicable

The element is provided, and is a formal title for the dataset (i.e. it is not the same as the short name and is free of grammatical and content errors).

<Summary>
  <Abstract>The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) is a grating spectrometer (R = 1200) aboard the second Earth Observing System (EOS) polar-orbiting platform, EOS Aqua. In combination with the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) and the Humidity Sounder for Brazil (HSB), AIRS constitutes an innovative atmospheric sounding group of visible, infrared, and microwave sensors. The AIRS Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Standard Retrieval Product consists of retrieved estimates of CO2, plus estimates of the errors associated with the retrieval. In contrast to AIRX2RET, the horizontal resolution of this standard product is about 110 km (1x1 degree). An AIRS granule has been set as 6 minutes of data, 15 footprints cross track by 22 lines along track.</Abstract>
