Data Science Use Cases and Questions that the Survey should consider

What metadata fields should be maintained?

The story

Chris' example at ORNL DAAC: They needed to identify metadata fields to maintain. The users wanted all the metadata, but that was not sustainable.

The issue

Data providers want to provide metadata for users, but don't know what metadata fields they should maintain.

Possible Survey Questions

How should a data provider figure out what metadata fields to maintain?
