Collection Progress

Describes the production status of the data set. There are three choices:

PLANNED refers to data sets to be collected in the future and are thus unavailable at the present time. For Example: The Hydro spacecraft has not been launched, but information on planned data sets may be available.

ACTIVE refers to data sets currently in production or data that is continuously being collected or updated. For Example: data from the AIRS instrument on Aqua is being collected continuously.

COMPLETE refers to data sets in which no updates or further data collection will be made. For Example: Nimbus-7 SMMR data collection has been completed.

NOT APPLICABLE refers to data sets where collection progress doesn't make sense.  For example a calibration collection record.

NOT PROVIDED - It is necessary for this value to exist so that the CMR can translate older non UMM compliant records into the latest UMM specification where CollectionProgress is required. 

Yes

  1. succinct description of the quality of data in the collection;
  2. Any quality assurance procedures followed in producing the data in the collection;
  3. indicators of collection quality or quality flags - both validated or invalidated;
  4. recognized or potential problems with quality;
  5. established quality control mechanisms; and

Use ConstraintsDesigned to protect privacy and/or intellectual property by allowing the author to specify how the collection may or may not be used after access is granted. This includes any special restrictions, legal prerequisites, terms and conditions, and/or limitations on using the item. Providers may request acknowledgement of the item from users and claim no responsibility for quality and completeness. Note: Use Constraints describe how the item may be used once access has been granted; and is distinct from Access Constraints, which refers to any constraints in accessing the item.
