1PURPOSE AND SCOPE. The process of forming an SA follows is typically draftedbegun after some (appraisal process for the data), such as the NOAA Procedure for Scientific Records Appraisal and Archive Approval, which results in the decision and the action to archive the Producer’s data for long-term preservation in the Archive. It is a negotiated agreement between the parties indicating a common understanding of performance similar to a “letter of intent”.This Submission Agreement (SA) is a pre-negotiated agreement between the Producer and the Archive. It contains, or has references to, all of the information needed to develop appropriate interfaces between two systems and provide information on data access and dissemination. Whether or not the information is contained directly in this document or is contained by reference is largely dependent on factors such as the complexity of the Producer’s Ddata and delivery systems and the existence of relevant technical documentation. This document neither captures nor defines formal requirements. However, the process of negotiating an SA may bring to light additional requirements. In those instances, the formal definition of such requirements occurs elsewhere and should be captured in appropriate requirements specifications. This document contains the following: Contact information for representatives of all stakeholder organizations Basic information about the Producer’s dData, e.g., descriptions, contents, formats, metadata How data will be transferred from the Producer to the Archive How submitted data will be ingested and how the Producer will be notified of potential problems How data can be searched and accessed within the Archive How data will be disseminated to consumers The definitions and processes concepts used in this SA are primarily based on the recommendations contained in two documents developed by the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS), the first of which has been that have been approved by the International Organization for Standards (ISO). These two documents are: the Reference Model for an Open Archival Information System (OAIS) (ISO 14721:2003), CCSDS 650.0-B-1, January 2002, (ISO 14721:2003) , and the Producer-Archive Interface Methodology Abstract Standard, CCSDS 651.0-B-1, May 2004 (PAIMAS) (ISO 20652:2006). Refer to Section 6.0 Appendix C, Standards NotesBackground, for more information and background information ofn the terms and concepts used in from xxxxxx documentstandards, and refer to Appendix A for a full explanation of the terminology used in this SA.k This SAe OAIS document uses the OAIS term “Producer” to define “the role played by those persons – or client systems – who provide the information to be preserved”. The term “Producer” is synonymous with “Provider” as the Producer is the entity that “produces” or delivers the data to the Archive entity. It is possible for more than one organization to interface with the Archive during the negotiation of a SA; in fact, each individual organization or system may play a different part of the role of the Producer. For the purposes of this agreement, the term “Archive” refers to a NOAA’s National Data Centers, possibly working in conjunction with an Information Technology (IT) system such as the Comprehensive Large Array-data Stewardship System (CLASS). Another OAIS term used in this SAe OAIS Reference Model is “Consumer,” often used as a synonym for a data “user.” Consumer is defined as “the role played by those persons, or client systems, who interact with OAIS services to find preserved information of interest and to access that information in detail.” These persons or systems are described as those found in the Designated Community. The OAIS Reference Model establishes in its recommendation minimal responsibilities that an organization must discharge in order to operate an OAIS archive, including the responsibility to obtain sufficient control of the information provided to the level needed to ensure long-term preservation, and to ensure that the information to be preserved is independently understandable to the Designated Community. In other words, the community should be able to understand the information without needing the assistance of the experts who produced the information. This agreement acknowledges by all parties the Archive's right to continually refresh, migrate and emulate the content information necessary for this (digital) long-term preservation. This may include actions such as future migration to different physical media and data conversion from the native data format to a better understood and timely data format. . carried out
