ISO_19115_Metadata_for_Air_Quality Description: The metadata has the primary purpose to facilitate finding and accessing the data in order to help dealing with first two hurdles that the users face. Clearly, the air quality specific metadata such as sampling platform, data domain and measured parameters etc. need to be defined by air quality users. Dealing with the hurdles of data quality and multi-sensory data integration are topics of future efforts.

ISO 19115 AQ Record Creation Procedure
To identify the fields necessary for discovery of the metadata record we started with the ISO 19115 Core Metadata fields (Nogueras-Iso, 2005) and also the fields that were needed for a Catalog Service for the Web (CSW) Record. This fulfilled two goals – one to create valid ISO 19115 records and the other to be able to retrieve the records from the clearinghouse through a CSW 2.0.2 query.
