Presentation Transcript

  1. FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata: Extensions for Remote Sensing Metadata

  2. Topics covered • How the standard was produced • Public outreach • What the standard contains

  3. Motivation • Compared FGDC metadata standard with ECS core metadata (release 2.0, 1994) • Identified several categories of ECS metadata not clearly supported in FGDC standard

  4. Beginnings • Proposal submitted January 1999, approved April • SWG designated Imagery Subgroup for development • Project development team • All members of Imagery Subgroup invited • Additional members added

  5. Development Cycle • Initial draft by NASA/NASA-support members of team • Three Project Development Team (PDT) review cycles: • Distributed for review • Discuss review at meeting • Revised on basis of review • Meeting with ISPRS and NIMA people on varieties ofsensors • Revisions after meeting sent to team for approval

  6. Development Team(not all members every cycle) • NASA • NASA Support - RITSS/GMU, SGT/GST, CSC • USGS • NIMA • Lockheed Martin • U. California (Santa Barbara) • ISPRS - intend to use as base for ISO standard • Material from U. Alabama (Huntsville)

  7. External Awareness of the Standard • Presented or briefed at professional conferences and meetings: • Digital Earth Symposium– 12/1999 • CEOS Working Group on Information System and Services (CEOS-WGISS) Meetings – 4/2000, 9/2000. • ISPRS Congress 7/2000. • OGC Technical Committee Meetings. • ISO Imagery (19121,4) and Metadata (19115) projects • Copies of draft sent to CEOS-WGISS, ISPRS WG II/4, DGIWG, ISO Imagery project, and experts from China, Japan, and European countries.

  8. Extended elements • Identification Information • Dataset identifier,aggregations, names, references • Data Quality Information: Algorithm and Processing • Spatial Data Organization Information • Additional raster description elements • Spatial Reference Information: Georeferencing • Entity and Attribute Information: Scaling

  9. New elements • Platform and Mission Information • Identify potential coverage • Instrument Information • Sweep scan • Frame Camera • Other (extensible)

  10. Final Review • After final Project Development Team meeting and revision, sent to Imagery Subgroup • Responded to Imagery Subgroup comments • Revised standard sent out with query for objections • Approved by SWG February 21, 2001

  11. External Review Plan • Once FGDC approves release for public review, in addition to regular FGDC channels, draft will be submitted for comment to the following groups: • CEOS WGISS • ISPRS WG II/4 • ISO Imagery components, Model Harmonization Team • ASPRS • OGC Metadata, Image Coordinate Transform groups • Presentation or briefing at professional meetings. • CEOS WGISS (May 2001) • Digital Earth (June 2001)

  12. Active Participants • Ben Kobler (NASA) • Barry Schlesinger (RITSS/GMU) • Liping Di (RITSS/GMU) • Wenli Yang (RITSS/GMU) • George Percivall (SGT/Global Science and Technology) • Lou Reich (CSC) • Dave Danko (NIMA) • Rick Pearsall (USGS) • Nand Lal (NASA) • R. Suresh (RITSS) • Karen Andersen (U. California Santa Barbara) • Bill Stein (NIMA) • Janet Hylton • Norman Andersen (Lockheed Martin) • Shawn Silkensen (Lochheed Martin) • Wolfgang Kresse (ISPRS – also consulting with others) • Mike Botts (University of Alabama Huntsville) • Ted Willard (CSC)
