Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (version 2.0)
1998 FGDC FGDC-STD-001-1998 FGDC
Reaffirm The standard should be superseded, evertually, by the North American Profile (NAP) of ISO 19115:2003, Geographic information. Upon adoption and sufficient time for vendors to create robust tools to create NAP metadata and for CSDGM Metadata to be converted to the NAP, then the CSDGM should be superceded by the NAP.
