Provenance in Earth Science Gregory Leptoukh NASA GSFC

Case 1: MODIS vs. MERIS Same parameterSame space & time Different results – why? MODIS MERIS Provenance aspect: A threshold used in MERIS processing effectively excludes high aerosol values.

Outline Case 1: MODIS vs. MERIS Why Provenance is needed: – knowledge for using the data Case 2: Temporal aggregation Collecting and delivering provenance Harmonizing Multi-sensor provenances: – Joint provenance ≠ prov1 + prov2 Case 3: Orbital characteristics and Dataday Conclusions 12/2/2015Leptoukh:

Merged AOD data from 5 retrieval algorithms (4 sensors: MODIS-Terra, MODIS- Aqua, MISR, and OMI) provide almost complete coverage. Merged multi-sensor aerosol data

Case 2: Temporal aggregation Time series of the global mean values of the AOD over the oceans from Mishchenko et al., 2007 Differences in Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) between various sensors seemingly exceed reported accuracies of each sensor 12/2/20155Leptoukh:

How sensitive are MODIS aerosols to different time aggregations? Mishchenko et al., 2007 The AOD difference can be up to 40%. Levy, Leptoukh, et al., 2009 MODIS Terra only AOD: difference between diff. aggregations Provenance aspect: Must record and assess differences in aggregation

Collecting and Delivering Data Provenance Where to find the knowledge about data? It is scattered in scientific papers, the actual code, unwritten assumptions, folklore, etc. Assess sensitivity of the results to variations in processing algorithms/steps… Work closely with scientists to guarantee science quality How to deliver provenance? Deliver to users together with the data Present to users in a convenient, easy-to-read fashion Provide recommendations for different data usage (applications vs. climate studies)

Data from multiple sensors: harmonization It is not sufficient just to have the data and their provenance from different sensors in one place Before data can be compared and fused, many items need to be harmonized: Data: format, grid, spatial and temporal resolution Metadata: standard fields, units, scales, quality? Provenance: what to do with it? Product AProduct B Good3 Bad2 Ugly1 0 Are these quality flags compatible?

How to work with multi-sensor data? Capture and classify the details of measurement technique, data collection and processing Identify and spell out similarities and differences Assess importance of these differences Deliver all this information in such a way that a user can easily see and understand the details Present recommendations to guide the data usage and avoid apples-to-oranges comparison and fusion 12/2/2015Leptoukh:

12/2/ Case 3: Why don’t MODIS Terra and Aqua Aerosols agree? MODIS-Terra vs. MODIS-Aqua: Map of AOD temporal correlation, 2008 Leptoukh:

AOD MODIS Terra vs. Aqua in Pacific Over the datelineAway from the dateline R 2 = 0.45 RMS = 0.05 R 2 = 0.72 RMS = /2/201511Leptoukh: Regressing AOD in two adjacent regions lead to different results

12/2/2015Leptoukh: Artifact explained! Max ∆t between Terra and Aqua

Provenance aspect of difference All processing steps are the SAME for both MODIS Dataday definition is the same for both MODIS Processing provenance alone doesn’t provide any explanation for the difference Difference in the Equatorial Crossing time alone is not crucial (a diff. dataday def. handles it correctly) Only a combination of few factors lead to the artifact: MODIS dataday def. together with Equatorial Crossing time It is Knowledge Provenance together with the Processing Provenance 12/2/2015Leptoukh:

Conclusions Data from multiple sensors provides a more complete coverage of physical phenomena Data provenance is needed to insure science quality Developing processing provenance is laborious Joint provenance is even a bigger challenge Proper capture and delivery of joint provenance improves quality of multi-sensor data utilization Combination of knowledge provenance and steps in processing provenance is needed to explain artifacts 12/2/2015Leptoukh:
