Collaborative Data Curation to Support the Multi-Mission Algorithm and Analysis Platform (MAAP)
Upcoming space-borne missions will offer unprecedented data about Earth but will also feature exponentially high data volumes. These high data volumes will change the way the scientific community works with data and will also create a unique need for improved data sharing and collaboration. NASA and ESA are working together to address these issues by collaboratively developing the Multi-Mission Algorithm and Analysis Platform (MAAP) to improve the understanding of global aboveground terrestrial carbon dynamics. The MAAP will support ESA’s BIOMASS mission, NASA’s GEDI mission and NASA/ISRO’s NISAR mission. The MAAP will be developed in two phases: a pilot phase and a full production phase. The pilot phase will demonstrate collaboration and basic capabilities. The pilot phase will focus on biomass relevant airborne and field campaign data. Two NASA teams are supporting the development of the MAAP. The MAAP engineering team is responsible for the development, maintenance and operations of the MAAP system while the MAAP data team ensures the ongoing quality of the data, metadata and other information provided in the MAAP. The MAAP data team also supports the ingest and archive of identified data to the MAAP platform. This poster describes the use case development process for the pilot MAAP and the data curated in support of those use cases. Additionally, this presentation will outline the pilot MAAP data ingest process and metadata curation effort along with efforts to ensure interoperability between ESA and NASA data and metadata.

Analysis and Review of NASA Earth Science Metadata: How Automation Plays a Role
The Analysis and Review of the Common Metadata Repository (CMR ARC) Team reviews all EOSDIS metadata. The team’s objective is to achieve consistency, correctness, and completeness for all metadata records in the CMR, as well as improve the discoverability of NASA's Earth Science data within the CMR framework. This work is currently being completed at Marshall Space Flight Center. CMR makes a single discovery point possible for NASA's Earth Science data users. The CMR team, in collaboration with three other core metadata teams, contributes to the stewardship of NASA's Earth Science data through a process of continual curation and the ongoing development of the Unified Metadata Model (UMM). A key tool now used in the curation process, referred to as the NASA CMR Dashboard, is an online curation dashboard developed in collaboration with software development company, Element 84. This tool facilitates the review of Earth Science metadata records and subsequent stakeholder collaboration on the resolution of identified issues. A key capability of the new tool is a suite of automated compliance checks written in Python 3.6 that verify the integrity of various metadata elements across multiple standards.

Collaborative Metadata Curation in Support of NASA Earth Science Data Stewardship
Growing collection of NASA Earth science data is archived and distributed by EOSDIS’s 12 Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs). Each collection and granule is described by a metadata record housed in the Common Metadata Repository (CMR). Multiple metadata standards are in use, and core elements of each are mapped to and from a common model – the Unified Metadata Model (UMM). Work done by the Analysis and Review of CMR (ARC) Team.
