***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0129520 Created on: 2015-06-22 22:03:35 UTC By: Automated Ingest Agent Source: These data were submitted for archive to the NODC from the Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC), Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), NASA/California Institute of Technology (Caltech), as part of the Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) program. Actions: GHRSST data is received daily by the NODC 30 days after observation (prior to 30 days it is available through the GDAC interface) through an automated procedure made possible largely by the formalized procedures developed within the GHRSST, especially those pertaining to data management, metadata, and file naming conventions. An automated process downloads data each day from the PO.DAAC FTP server and uses MD5 hash digests to verify the transmission of the data. Corresponding metadata are downloaded from a web service in XML format. An automated process uses a combination of boilerplate information, information from the filenames, information from the metadata records, and information generated by the NODC archive system to create an archival information package (an NODC accession). On a routine basis, an HTTP/FTP/OPeNDAP/TDS dissemination hierarchy is then constructed pointing to the data and metadata residing in the formal NODC archive file system. Normally, GHRSST Data Specification version 1 data arriving at NODC from the GDAC are identified in both an index file and a corresponding FGDC record's Entities and Attributes section. In some cases, there is a mismatch between that index file and the list in the FGDC record, a mismatch between the list in the FGDC record and files already residing in this accession (for updates to existing GHRSST accessions), or a combination of the two problems. For this accession, there was a mismatch between that index file and the list in the FGDC record sent by the GDAC. NODC's archive systems accommodated this inconsistency by adding the files into the archive accession. Some data files were not accompanied by a corresponding DIF-format metadata file ("FR" file). The data files were added into the archive accession, despite the missing DIF-format metadata files. The file about/GDS1-L2P-MODIS_A-JPL-2015-113.xml is based on the file data/0-data/GDS1-L2P-MODIS_A-JPL/FGDC-20150423-MODIS_A-JPL-L2P-v01.xml. Files: about/ This directory contains files created by NODC staff, including 'negotiable' information between NODC staff and the data provider. data/0-data/ This directory contains files in their original format as downloaded to NODC. The file naming convention for the GHRSST GDS 1.0 is described in GDS 1.0 Technical Specifications: GDS-v1.0-rev1.6.pdf (GHRSST documentation, NODC Accession 0123222).
