SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
When creating a Request to Archive
oceanographic data or information at the
United States (U.S.) National Centers for
Environmental Information (NCEI),
well-organized and complete metadata
describing those data are needed for
long term understanding and use of
those data. The Send2NCEI web
application provides a web-based form
for easily collecting required and
optional descriptive metadata to
describe oceanographic data in a way
that supports Executive Order 12906
and structures those metadata to
conform to the internationally used ISO
19115 Geospatial Metadata suite of
standards. Descriptive metadata informs
the suitability of data for use by future
data users and should provide critical
context about how data were collected,
what techniques and measurements
were made, and data quality
characterizations. Information about the
data provider or other individuals is

scientists and their data managers.
