Treasures: Data Preservation with Metadata |
This presentation addresses the loss of knowledge in regards to the
data collected and analyzed by the human capital. Metadata is suggested
as a solution to aid in data preservation and rescue data and provide
means for legacy data discovery and access. Activities of several
entities to rescue data or provide a haven for orphaned data will be
reported. An executive summary on the USGS Scientific Information
Management workshop concludes the presentation. |

Making
the Transition to International Metadata |
The Workshop focus is on the implementation of ISO migration. It
should outline a step-by-step method for migration and explain how
various resources can be used. The United States is in the final stages
of implementing a new geospatial metadata standard in compliance with
the International Organization for Standards (ISO). The new standard is
based heavily on the FGDC’s Content Standard for Digital Geospatial
Metadata (CSDGM) but incorporates new elements, domains, conditionality
and formats. The standard will be implemented as an American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) standard and have a broader constituency
than the former CSDGM Federal standard. |

The definition and components of the US FGDC and the NSDI and how
it was implemented and evolved in the. The principal point is, however,
that this is only one model. The model for any other country needs to
fit the culture, situation, requirements, politics, and personalities
of the nation programs and people implementing an SDI program. |
