Resource Specific Usage

From Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP)

Capturing information from users about how they are using data and limitations that they identify with specific products is an important part of the on-going process of documenting information quality. The ISO metadata standards (19115 and 19115-1) both include standard mechanisms for representing this kind of information. This page focuses on 19115-3 which includes and extends the 19115 approach.
