Element Description
The Short Name element contains an abbreviated name for a dataset. The Short Name and Version Id combination must be unique per provider in the CMR.
Best Practices
The Short Name is an abbreviated or shortened name used to identify a dataset. The Short Name, in combination with the Version Id, uniquely describe a metadata record in the CMR per data provider. While the Short Name can be used as a unique identifier for a dataset, it should never be the same as the dataset DOI.
Examples:
"AIRIBQAP"
"gpmrgachiphx"
"FIFE_RAIN_30M_2"
Element Specification
Model | Element | Type | Constraints | Required? | Cardinality | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
UMM-C | ShortName | String | 1 - 85 characters | Yes | 1 | The ShortName and Version together have to be unique per data provider. |
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).
