Measured Parameters

Element Description

This element provides the geophysical parameters that were obtained during data collection. It contains not only the name of the parameters, but it also includes the associated data quality stats and data quality flags. The data quality stats provide information on the measurement of the quality of the data while the data quality flags represent the overall quality assurance levels placed on the granule's parameters.

Best Practices

At bare minimum, the parameter name(s) must be provided.

Examples:

Metadata Validation and QA/QC

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).

Provide the GranuleUR in the gmd:code field.

Provide the string"gov.nasa.esdis.umm.granuleur" in the gmd:codeSpace field. The CMR will use this string to parse out the appropriate GranuleUR value.

Also provide the string "GranuleUR" in the gmd:description field. The CMR will use this string to parse out the appropriate GranuleUR value.
