Fixing Dataset Search
Christopher S. Lynnes · NASA STI Repository (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) · 2014
Three current search engines are queried for ozone data at the GES DISC. The results range from sub-optimal to counter-intuitive. We propose a method to fix dataset search by implementing a robust relevancy ranking scheme. The relevancy ranking scheme is based on several heuristics culled from more than 20 years of helping users select datasets.
