Title
A New Approach to Preservation Metadata for Scientific Data: A Real World Example.
Abstract
The Open Archival Information System (OAIS) Reference Model was developed by the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) in the late 1990s and was adopted as an ISO standard in 2003 (ISO14721:2003) (CCSDS 650.0-B-1, 2002). Recently, many libraries, data centers, and archives around the world have started to adopt this archive model. As a notable example, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the United States of America adopted the model for their Comprehensive Large Array-data Stewardship System (CLASS). CLASS is expected to be the primary repository and access portal for NOAA’s Earth science, satellite-remote-sensing data (http://www.class.noaa.gov/nsaa/products/welcome). Because of the huge scale of these efforts, it is important to carefully consider the manner in which data archives implement the OAIS Reference Model. The specifics of the implementation could impact the preservation and therefore the use and usability of vast quantities of data for many years.
