Problem: Focus on data/services “not important” Too much trouble Solution: Must be integral part of operations Part of data collection process Easy to do Stay with the data Life-cycle support Metadata Issues
Design Goals for Metadata in ArcCatalog • Make it easy to create and use metadata • Create editors that are easy to use • Create and update metadata automatically with a dataset’s current properties
Design Goals for Metadata in ArcCatalog • Support ISO metadata content standard out of the box • Support other standards through customization • Support metadata for everything • Geographic data, nonspatial files, folders, databases, etc.
Design Goals for Metadata in ArcCatalog • Metadata is part of the data • Travels with the data when copied, moved, renamed, or exported • Doesn’t get lost • Use open, flexible, industry- standard technology • Metadata stored in XML format
ISO Metadata Tools in ArcCatalog • Editor for typing information • Style sheets for viewing • Synchronizer for updating automatically • Importers and exporters • Translator from one standard to another
ISO Metadata Editor • Wizard-based editor designed for the average person • Elements are introduced by plain language • Navigate with Next and Back buttons or go directly to a page using the TOC • Handles core elements as defined by 19115
ISO Synchronizer • Automates much of the work for metadata collection and maintenance • Vector and raster information, spatial reference, etc. Automatically senses and records properties Automatically senses and records properties ArcIMS Services Files
