Front cover of three Data Reports (FY 2025 Q1-2)

Data Reports

Data reports (former data series) are used for extended textual descriptions of datasets or databases that go beyond the minimally required metadata. The associated dataset or database itself is released separately as a data release from an acceptable USGS digital repository. This series is not to be used instead of a data release. Examples of interpretive information may include analysis of the data and conclusions. Other more specific examples for this series include noninterpretive and interpretive extended descriptions of digital content, such as scientific video, multimedia, photographs, or software manuals and documentation, where the actual content is released separately.
