MD MetadataScope
From Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP)
In ISO 19115 a metadata record could include any number of hierarchyLevels and hoerarchyLevelNames but there was no mechanism for connection appropriate pairs. MD_MetadataScope was introduced in ISO 19115-1 in order to allow unambiguous association of scope codes and level names. Repeat if more than one scope is applicable to this metadata description.
| Elements | Definition and Recommended Practice | Examples |
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | resourceScope | 1 | Scope of resource to which the metadata applies. Most common values to use are the following: 'dataset' for granule level, 'series' for collection level, 'nonGeographicDataset' for space weather, 'fieldSession' for cruises or surveys, 'service' for map services and 'model'. | An example is needed! |
| 2 | name | 1 | The name of the hierarchy level. | An example is needed! |
