This site contains information about the PDS4 prototype migration effort to be conducted at the Small Bodies Node in the Fall of 2012. It will eventually contain both tracking information and potentially useful support information for PDS4 data developers inside and outside the SBN.


Here are the major subsections:


  • Questions - If you have questions about the mechanics of creating labels, using the XML tools, what you can and can't do in terms of structure, etc., this is the place. We'll try to answer them ASAP.


  • How-To - Quick tutorials on specific tasks or problems, including things like setting up editors and running validators, or understanding what you're typing into the PDS4 labels.


  • Repository - This will take you to the Repository that we're actively building, so you can access the files that have already been migrated. Note that this area will always be under construction! Things will change - see the AAREADME file for details. If you encounter unexpected problems with the files in here, please post them so we can fix/explain them. Thanks!


  • Tracking - Here's where we'll list the data sets to be migrated, track migration progress and keep notes on specific issues and problems encountered.


  • SBN Discipline Dictionary Page - This is where we'll gather the information we'll need to create a small bodies discipline dictionary, as well as the mock-ups I'll put together by hand until there is a real data dictionary tool. (You'll need the mock-ups for validation work.)
