Inter-Agency Implementation and Advanced Concepts (IMPACT) team members Kaylin Bugbee, Aaron Kaulfus, and Deborah Smith (ST11) presented progress on the Algorithm Publication Tool (APT) and demonstrated capabilities of a beta version of the tool to DAAC managers during their monthly meeting on 4/12/2021. The APT is a web-based application to streamline the authoring, management, and discovery of Algorithm Theoretical Basis Documents. DAAC’s personnel are primary stakeholders of the tool and expected to utilize documents produced by APT as part of data curation and provenance efforts. In addition to publicizing the tool to key stakeholders, this demonstration and resulting discussion provided key feedback to the IMPACT team for ongoing development efforts.
