Abstract:
Software and services that access
Planetary Data System (PDS) PDS4 data products need
to parse product labels to retrieve, interpret, and
process the referenced digital objects. Under PDS4 a
driving principle is that the product label provide all of
the information necessary for these functions to be
performed accurately. However, significantly more
information is available in the PDS4 Information
Model (IM)[1], the controlling document used to
define, create, and syntactically and semantically
verify the product labels. This additional information
in the IM is made available for use, by both software
and services, to configure, promote resiliency, and
improve interoperability.
