− | The Identification Spiral sets the stage for discovery of the described resource using text search engines. It includes a unique identifier for the metadata, a title, an abstract, theme keywords and contact information for the metadata and the dataset. In many dialects citations to the described resource are used to provide important information about how users should cite the documented resource that is described by the metadata. These citations are an important part of the identification information and, as such, they are in a special location in the record.<table xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" width="95%" border="1" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3" style="border-collapse: collapse;" id="rubricIdentification"><tr><th width="15%">Concept</th><th width="25%">Description</th><th width="60%">Dialect (Fit) Paths</th></tr><tr><td>[[Concepts_Glossary#Metadata_Identifier|Metadata Identifier]]</td><td>A phrase or string which uniquely identifies the metadata file/record.</td><td style="word-break:break-all;"><b>DIF</b> /dif:DIF/dif:Entry_ID<br><b>ISO</b> /*/gmd:fileIdentifier/gco:CharacterString<br><b>ISO-1</b> /mdb:MD_Metadata/mdb:metadataIdentifier/mcc:MD_Identifier<br><b>SERF</b> /serf:SERF/serf:Entry_ID<br></td></tr><tr><td>[[Concepts_Glossary#Resource_Title|Resource Title]]</td><td>A short description of the resource.

Identification
The Identification Spiral sets the stage for discovery of the described resource using text search engines. It includes a unique identifier for the metadata, a title, an abstract, theme keywords and contact information for the metadata and the dataset. In many dialects citations to the described resource are used to provide important information about how users should cite the documented resource that is described by the metadata. These citations are an important part of the identification information and, as such, they are in a special location in the record.Concept | Description | Dialect (Fit) Paths |
---|---|---|
Metadata Identifier | A phrase or string which uniquely identifies the metadata file/record. | DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Entry_ID ISO /*/gmd:fileIdentifier/gco:CharacterString ISO-1 /mdb:MD_Metadata/mdb:metadataIdentifier/mcc:MD_Identifier SERF /serf:SERF/serf:Entry_ID |
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 DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Entry_Title DIF /dif:DIF/dif:Data_Set_Citation/dif:Dataset_Title DCAT /dct:title Dryad dcterms:title ECHO /*/echo:ShortName | /*/echo:LongName ECHO /*/echo:DataSetId ECS /*/ecs:ShortName | /*/ecs:LongName EML /eml:eml/eml:dataset/eml:title FGDC /fgdc:metadata/fgdc:idinfo/fgdc:citation/fgdc:citeinfo/fgdc: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/gco:CharacterString ISO-1 /mdb:MD_Metadata/mdb:identificationInfo/*/mri:citation/cit:CI_Citation/cit:title/gco:CharacterString UMM /umm:UMM/umm:CollectionCitation/umm:Title OGC-SOS /sos:Capabilities/ows:ServiceIdentification/ows: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 netCDF /nc:netcdf/nc:attribute[@nc:name='title']/@nc:value |

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.
