NASA's Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) Standards Coordination Office (ESCO) conducts reviews of proposed standards, practices, and technical information relevant to the ESDIS Project mission. 

ESCO's purview includes reviews of Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Keyword updates. Stakeholders (data providers, data consumers) with knowledge of the disciplines represented in the review package are invited to participate in these reviews. Reviews help ensure the quality and integrity of all GCMD Keywords. Learn more about GCMD Keywords at the GCMD Keywords Community Forum.

All documents are reviewed as part of the ESDIS Project's standards process. Approved documents are published and included on the Standards and Practices list.

ESCO welcomes new submissions of proposed standards and technical notes. If you would like to participate in the ESCO process please email us at esco-staff@lists.nasa.gov.
