Contains Abstract, Contact Information, Keywords and any other such documentation that is needed in classifying or finding the service. The metadata is accessible for the user via capabilities and coverage description documents.

Every provider should have wcs_capabilities.conf that lists keywords and contact information. The format is simple, copy one from the testprovider and edit it.

   # this file provides some information about the provider
   # and is incorporated into the respective WCS responses.
   # all currently available field identifiers are listed below.
   # please define every identifier only once.
   # other identifiers will be ignored, input is case sensitive.
   # the format is always <identifier>: <value>.
   # whitespaces before and after <value> will be stripped.
   # KEYWORDS can take a comma separated list that will then be
   # included in the respective keyword tags
   # empty lines and lines starting with "#" will be ignored.
