Environment Australia is now utilizing Dublin Core for its Web metadata and
internal searches.
The Environment Australia On-line Service http://www.environment.gov.au/
is a site dealing with Australia's Environment and has over 8000 on-line
documents serving up over 1 Gb of information, with further links into
a range of databases, placing a virtual Terabyte of information on-line.
Accessions (excluding images, icons, logos, etc.) total over 550,000 per
month.
Full project documentation will be forthcoming, but in the mean-time, a
document otlining Environment Australia's use of Dublin Core can be found
at:
http://www.environment.gov.au/www-standards/EA_DC.html
Any comments would be welcome.
