Element Description
The Version element indicates the version of the
Best Practices
The version should be throughout the metadata record. The version in the metadata should be identical to the version as is specified on the dataset landing page and in dataset documentation. For example, if the dataset landing page specifies the dataset as version 1.1, then the version number in the metadata should also be 1.1 (e.g. not 1.10). If the version in the title is specified as 3.4.2004 then the version in the metadata should also be 3.4.2004 (e.g. not 03.04.2004).
Examples:
"2.0"
"1"
"007"

Note: The short name and version combination must be unique across the CMR.
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).
Please see the expandable sections below for flowchart details.
