Models: Hindcasts and Forecasts #59

Open mwengren opened 6 years ago

mwengren commented 6 years ago

How to work better with model forecast and hindcast data in IOOS Catalog. Are there metadata conventions we can use to 1) identify model output data (hindcast or forecast) and 2) associate related hindcasts and forecasts together.

From SECOORA DMAC review webinar.

Yes. Coverate Content Type can disambiguate. Unforunately we don't have this for many datasets.

We should work with providers to enable these: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ncisometadata/5_dE_fatVfA/Z2WrNWvsKWUJ
