Introduction
CMR
The Common Metadata Repository (CMR) is a high-performance, high-quality, continuously evolving metadata system that catalogs Earth Science data and associated service metadata records. These metadata records are registered, modified, discovered, and accessed through programmatic interfaces leveraging standard protocols and APIs.
CMR OPeNDAP
CMR OPeNDAP, and in particular the CMR OPeNDAP API, allows client applications to integrate core CMR metadata more easily with provider OPeNDAP deployments. This is done by utilzing stored metadata to create queries that are capable of extracting associated satellite data and related products directly from services whose metadata the CMR manages.
To facilitate easy integration of the capability in other applications, CMR OPeNDAP provides a REST API for generating such queries.
