Principles for Metadata Creation - Matt Mayernik

  • principles may formalize data management and metadata education
  • "respect des fonds" - respecting the original order

  • Describing Archives, a Content Standard (DACS, 2013)
  • LIS Metadata principles table
  • EML and ISO 19115-2:214 - doesn't have any principles published in doc
  • common to find descriptions of functions and what metadata should be achieving
  • differences between prinicples (how), goals (why) and functions (what)
  • RDA Metadata WG published some metadata principles --
  • Geo Data Management Principles

Questions to Discuss:

  1. What are the principles of metadata creation for scientific data?
  2. how can principles inform future standards devel?
  3. Should ESIP Doc Cluster work on a set of principles?

Discussion Topics

  • Should this cluster define metadata principles for earth science data?
  • Summer Session Plans
