dear all, thor jessen of the EEA has compiled a doc on the European Environment Agency - Metadata Standard for Geographic Information (EEA-MSGI) that we have uploaded to our dc fileserver. the standard is based on ISO 19115. it is available at http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/files/DC-ENVIRONMENT/EEA-MSGI_v01c.doc . your comments are welcome. He is also informing us that they are developing a system where metadata follows the data all the way from the datacreater to the datauser. This system includes following important components: - EEA-MSGI Metadata editor for ESRI ArcGIS environment - XSL style sheets for viewing EEA-MSGI XML files - EEA-MSGI Verification tool - Export tool to other metadata formats - Synchroniser tool for ESRI ArcGIS environment (Auto update of some metadata information's) - Tool for one-click publishing of data with metadata to our spatial data warehouse, Dataservice and web map service The Metadata editor is ready in first version. The rest will be developed during this year. cheers thom
