Hi!

I'm work on a list of key events in the history of GIS / spatial data processing. Does anyone know when the GCMD Science Keywords was started?

The release announcements page just shows "Forbidden".

I got that link from here:

Thanks!

The GCMD keywords were established in 1987 as a result of a NASA-sponsored Earth Science and Applications Data Systems Workshop. See the details and reference at: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1674987122000536#:~:text=The%20GCMD%20keywords%20came%20about,Major%20and%20Olsen%2C%202003).
