## Codelists

## MD_CoverageContentTypeCode :

Description: specific type of information represented in the cell
CodeSpace: http://standards.iso.org/iso/19115/-3/mrc/1.0
Number of items: 8

Entry | Definition
--- | ---
image | meaningful numerical representation of a physical parameter that is not the actual value of the physical parameter
thematicClassification | code value with no quantitative meaning, used to represent a physical quantity
physicalMeasurement | value in physical units of the quantity being measured
auxillaryInformation | data, usually a physical measurement, used to support the calculation of the primary physicalMeasurement coverages in the dataset (e.g. grid of aerosol optical thickness used in the calculation of a sea surface temperature product).
qualityInformation | data used to characterize the quality of the physicalMeasurement coverages in the dataset. Typically included in a gmi:QE_CoverageResult.
referenceInformation | reference information used to support the calculation or use of the physicalMeasurement coverages in the dataset (e.g. grids of latitude/longitude used to geolocate the physical measurements).
modelResult | resources with values that are calculated using a model rather than being observed or calculated from observations.
coordinate | data used to provide coordinate axis values

shadow | portion of the image is obscured by shadow
snow | portion of the image is obscured by snow
