The subject of this module is "Submitting Metadata to the GCMD."  This module was authored by Lola Olsen from the National Aeronautics & Space Administration, NASA, and Tyler Stevens, NASA Contractor for Wyle Information Systems at the Global Change Master Directory, and the Goddard Space Flight Center.  Besides the ESIP Federation, sponsors of this Data Management for Scientists Short Course are the Data Conservancy and the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
