***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0128180 Created on: 2015-06-13 13:18:56 UTC By: Automated Ingest Agent Source: An error in the ingest processing of the files in this data set resulted in these files being stored in a directory which omitted the version number of the data set. This update moves the files into the correctly versioned directory. No other changes were made to this accession. Version: 2.2 Updates received on: 2015-05-19 Actions: Updates were received for this data set. These updates were copied into the data/0-data directory of this accession. These updates may provide additional files or replace obsolete files. However, all of the files received prior to this update are available in the preceding version of this accession. The directory GDS2-L2P-VIIRS_NPP-OSPO was renamed to GDS2-L2P-VIIRS_NPP-OSPO-v2.3. ***************************************************************** Journal for accession number: 0128180 Created on: 2015-05-20 01:39:56 UTC By: Automated Ingest Agent Source: These data were submitted for archive to NCEI 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: While most GHRSST data are retrieved from the PO.DAAC 30 days after observation, these GHRSST data are received daily by NCEI, as soon as they become available, 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 NCEI archive system to create an archival information package (an 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 NCEI archive file system. The file about/GDS2-L2P-VIIRS_NPP-OSPO-v2.3-2015-138.xml is based on the descriptive information provided by the GDAC granule search service. Files: about/ This directory contains files created by NCEI staff, including 'negotiable' information between NCEI staff and the data provider. data/0-data/ This directory contains files in their original format as downloaded to NCEI. The file naming convention for the GHRSST GDS 2.0 is described in GDS 2.0 Technical Specifications: GDS_TechSpecs_v2.0.pdf (GHRSST documentation, NODC Accession 0123222).
