Attribute Convention for Data Discovery - Highly Recommended

These attributes are highly recommended by the Attribute Convention for Data Discovery

Crosswalks

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. DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Entry_Title
ECHO /*/echo:ShortName>/*/echo:LongName
ECS /ecs:CollectionMetaDataFile/ecs:CollectionMetaDataSets/ecs:Collections/ecs:CollectionMetaData/ecs:ShortName> /ecs:CollectionMetaDataFile/ecs:CollectionMetaDataSets/ecs:Collections/ecs:CollectionMetaData/ecs:LongName
ISO /*/gmd:identificationInfo/*/gmd:citation/gmd:CI_Citation/gmd:title/gco:CharacterString
UMM /umm:UMM/umm:CollectionCitation/umm:Title
Abstract A paragraph describing the resource. DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Summary/dif:Abstract
ECHO /*/echo:Description
ISO /*/gmd:identificationInfo/*/gmd:abstract/gco:CharacterString
UMM /umm:UMM/umm:Summary
Keyword A word or phrase that describes some aspect of a resource. Can be one of several types.

Note: The general identification keywords usually have a type of "theme" and are refered to as "theme keywords". Other types and vocabularies are used for other information.

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.
