Documenting Projects
From Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP)
The Arctic Research Mapping Application (ARMAP) brings together a multi-disciplinary collection of nearly three thousand NSF funded projects focused on characterizing and understanding the Arctic environment. These projects are described in a standard and structured way using a metadata profile developed during 2011 by the Alaska Data Integration working group (ADIwg). This profile was originally derived from the FGDC Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (documentation from the original ADIwg wiki will be available at https://github.com/adiwg/project-metadata-fgdc). It includes a number of fundamental documentation concepts that, taken together, have been proven to make up a successful framework for providing access to information about NSF funded projects in the Arctic region and their geographic distribution. The fundamental project documentation concepts and how these concepts might be shared across a broader community using other metadata dialects are described here.
Project Identification
Identifying projects unambiguously requires titles and identifiers.| Concept | Description | Dialect (Fit) Paths |
|---|---|---|
| Resource Title | A short description of the resource. The title should be descriptive enough so that when a user is presented with a list of titles the general content of the data set can be determined. | ADIwg /adiwg:project/adiwg:idinfo/adiwg:citation/adiwg:citeinfo/adiwg:title BDP /bdp:metadata/bdp:idinfo/bdp:citation/bdp:citeinfo/bdp:title CSDGM /csdgm:metadata/csdgm:idinfo/csdgm:citation/csdgm:citeinfo/csdgm:title DCAT /dct:title DCITE /dcite:resource/dcite:titles/dcite:title DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Entry_Title DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Data_Set_Citation/dif:Dataset_Title DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Entry_Title DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Dataset_Citation/dif:Dataset_Title Dryad /*/dcterms:title ECHO /*/echo:ShortName | /*/echo:LongName ECHO /*/echo:DataSetId ECS /*/ecs:ShortName | /*/ecs:LongName EML /eml:eml/*/title HCLS dct:title HDF5.1 /hdf5:HDF5-File/hdf5:RootGroup/hdf5:Attribute[@Name='title']/hdf5:Data/hdf5:DataFromFile HDF5.1 /hdf5:HDF5-File/hdf5:RootGroup/hdf5:Group[@Name='METADATA']/hdf5:Group[@Name='COLLECTIONMETADATA']/hdf5:Attribute[@Name='LongName']/hdf5:Data/hdf5:DataFromFile ISO /*/gmd:identificationInfo/*/gmd:citation/gmd:CI_Citation/gmd:title//* ISO-1 /mdb:MD_Metadata/mdb:identificationInfo/*/mri:citation/cit:CI_Citation/cit:title//* MODS //mods:mods/mods:titleInfo/mods:title Mercury /mercury:metadata/mercury:idinfo/mercury:citation/mercury:citeinfo/mercury:title OGC-SOS /sos:Capabilities/ows:ServiceIdentification/ows:Title Onedcx /onedcx:metadata/onedcx:simpleDc/dcterms:title RDA-CISL /rda:dsOverview/rda:title SERF /serf:SERF/serf:Entry_Title THREDDS /thredds:catalog/thredds:dataset/@name THREDDS /thredds:catalog/thredds:dataset/thredds:metadata/dc:title THREDDS //thredds:dataset[1]/@name UMM /umm:UMM/umm:CollectionCitation/umm:Title |

In those cases it is difficult to unambiguously identify place keywords. | ADIwg /adiwg:project/adiwg:idinfo/adiwg:keywords/adiwg:place/adiwg:placekey BDP /bdp:metadata/bdp:idinfo/bdp:keywords/bdp:place/bdp:placekey CSDGM /csdgm:metadata/csdgm:idinfo/csdgm:keywords/csdgm:place/csdgm:placekey DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Category DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Type DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Subregion1 DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Subregion2 DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Subregion3 DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Detailed_Location DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Category DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Type DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Subregion1 DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Subregion2 DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Location_Subregion3 DIF-10 /dif:DIF/dif:Location/dif:Detailed_Location ECHO /*/echo:Spatial/echo:GranuleLocality/echo:LocalityValue ECHO /*/SpatialKeywords/Keyword EML /eml:eml/*/keywordSet/keyword[@keywordType="place"] HDF5.1 /hdf5:HDF5-File/hdf5:RootGroup/hdf5:Group[@Name='METADATA']/hdf5:Group[@Name='COLLECTIONMETADATA']/hdf5:Attribute[@Name='SpatialKeyword']/hdf5:Data/hdf5:DataFromFile ISO /*/gmd:identificationInfo/*/gmd:descriptiveKeywords/gmd:MD_Keywords[normalize-space(gmd:type/gmd:MD_KeywordTypeCode)='place']/gmd:keyword//* ISO-1 /mdb:MD_Metadata/mdb:identificationInfo/*/mri:descriptiveKeywords/mri:MD_Keywords[normalize-space(mri:type/mri:MD_KeywordTypeCode)='place']/mri:keyword//* ISO-1 /mdb:MD_Metadata/mdb:identificationInfo/*/mri:extent/gex:EX_Extent/gex:geographicElement/gex:EX_GeographicDescription/gex:geographicIdentifier/mcc:MD_Identifier/mcc:code//* Mercury /mercury:metadata/mercury:idinfo/mercury:keywords/mercury:place/mercury:placekey Mercury /mercury:metadata/mercury:mercury/mercury:Site_Information/mercury:Site OGC-SOS /sos:Capabilities/ows:ServiceIdentification/ows:Keywords[ows:Type='place']/ows:Keyword Onedcx /onedcx:metadata/onedcx:dcTerms/dcterms:spatial THREDDS /thredds:catalog/thredds:dataset/thredds:geospatialCoverage/thredds:name |

xPath Note: The xPaths included in this table use several wildcards. // means any path, so //gmd:CI_ResponsibleParty indicates a gmd:CI_ResponsibleParty anywhere in an XML file. /*/ indicates a single level with several possible elements. This usually indicates one of several concrete realizations of an abstract object. For example /*/gmd:identificationInfo could be gmd:MD_Metadata/gmd:identificationInfo or gmi:MI_Metadata/gmd:identificationInfo and gmd:identificationInfo//*/gmd:descriptiveKeywords could be gmd:identificationInfo/gmd:MD_DataIdentification/gmd:descriptiveKeywords or gmd:identificationInfo/srv:SV_ServiceIdentification/gmd:descriptiveKeywords. Fit: The fit of the dialect path with the concept is estimated on a scale of 1 = excellent two-way fit, 2 = one-way fit or some other problem, 3 - extension required.
