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 |

Use Constraints | Designed 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.
