Global Change Master Directory (GCMD)
The GCMD database holds more than 30,000 descriptions of Earth science data sets and services covering all aspects of Earth and environmental sciences. The mission of the GCMD is to (1) Assist the scientific community in the discovery of Earth science data, related services, and ancillary information (platforms, instruments, projects, data centers/service providers); and (2) Provide discovery/collection-level metadata of Earth science resources and provide scientists a comprehensive and high quality database to reduce overall expenditures for scientific data collection and dissemination.
