Metadata to differentiate GNOME and non-GNOME HFRNET datasets #30

Open rsignell-usgs opened 10 years ago

rsignell-usgs commented 10 years ago

Now that the UCSD HFRNET HR radar datasets (http://hfrnet.ucsd.edu/thredds/catalog.html) are being harvested, how can we distinguish in the metadata the difference between the GNOME formatted versions of the data and the non-GNOME versions? The metadata looks the same to me: 6-18-2014 7-17-21 am

I guess one way would be to get UCSD to put GNOME in the title, and then we could search on that, but is there a better way?

I did a diff on one of the GNOME http://hfrnet.ucsd.edu/thredds/iso/HFRNet/AKNS/6km/hourly/GNOME?catalog=http://hfrnet.ucsd.edu/thredds/HFRADAR_AKNS_hourly_GNOME.html&dataset=HFRNet/AKNS/6km/hourly/GNOME and one of the RTK metadata records http://hfrnet.ucsd.edu/thredds/iso/HFRNet/AKNS/6km/hourly/RTV?catalog=http://hfrnet.ucsd.edu/thredds/HFRADAR_AKNS_hourly_RTV.html&dataset=HFRNet/AKNS/6km/hourly/RTV and the only difference is that the variables u and v in the RTV datasets are called water_u and water_v in the GNOME datasets.

That would be a pretty cryptic way for users to distinguish between the two. @amilan17, where would be the right place in the metadata to distinguish the Gnome from the RTV datasets?

Title would be a good place to start....

I just spoke with Mark Otero, and he said he would change the titles to be something more like

HFRNET, Alaska - North Slope, 6km Resolution, Hourly RTV
HFRNET, Alaska - North Slope, 6km Resolution, Hourly GNOME

but he's in the field for the next 2 weeks or so.

Mark Otero (@motero-sio) wrote me that the catalogs had been updated, so I guess we should see the changes appear on the geoportal within two days

Please let me know if changes look OK. Once they are, we'll propagate the updates to NDBC and Rutgers systems.
