Geospatial metadata: History & Standards

Geospatial metadata (also geographic metadata) is a type of metadata applicable to geographic data and information. Such objects may be stored in a geographic information system (GIS) or may simply be documents, data-sets, images or other objects, services, or related items that exist in some other native environment but whose features may be appropriate…

How Geospatial metadata connects Entity context

The extracted context around Geospatial metadata shows recurring relationship patterns in the source. For example, Geospatial metadata → Administrative, ANZLIC, Applications Data Systems Workshop, Australia, DIF, Earth Science, Extensible Markup Language, FGDC, Geographic Information, Geography Markup Language, GML, Hydrology, Internet, ISO, ISO/TC, Metadata, NASA's, New Zealand, Open Geospatial Consortium, Ordnance Survey Another extracted example is Geospatial metadata → Arcitecta's Mediaflux, Autodesk's AutoCAD Map, CSDGM, Digital Geospatial Metadata, ESRI's ArcGIS Desktop, Federal Content Standard, GIS, GIS Inventory, Intergraph's GeoMedia, Participants, SOCET GXP, The GIS Inventory, US Federal. Use these groups to spot repeated connection types before inspecting the individual relationships.
