New Metadata Capabilities within NASA's Common Metadata Repository (CMR)

This talk will convey the new capabilities and features of the UMM-Variables and the UMM-Services metadata model within the Common Metadata Repository (CMR) and how community engagement through the ESDIS Standards Office (ESO) review shaped the new versions of the models. The Unified Metadata Model (UMM) provides a common metadata model to unify legacy systems (i.e. GCMD (Global Change Master Directory), ECHO (Earth Observing System (EOS) Clearinghouse)) with new systems (i.e. CMR). The rationale and migration process of the Service Entry Resource Format (SERF) to the UMM-S will also be conveyed. The talk will conclude with discussing issues and lessons learned from the review process and how future reviews will be conducted to ensure a more targeted, meaningful review with a faster turn-around time for triage and implementation.
