Overview

These are experimental pages originated from OSGeodata Mailing List on OSGeo.org.

Let's finally unleash geographic information through open access and dissemination of geographic data and (metadata) search appliances!

Managing metadata well is the key to making a repository of open geographic data really useful and re-usable. Creating metadata can be a dull chore. Part of the problem is over-focus on production, rather than consumption; on standards, rather than on usage. The Geodata Committee at OSGeo has been working on a "simplest useful thing" approach to geographic metadata.... (Citation from Jo Walsh)

Therefore we urgently need a metadata information model as well as a metadata exchange protocol (see below).

Keywords: Open access to and dissemination of geographic data (geodata) and information; Metadata; Finding, harvesting or discovery of geodata and web map services; Interoperability; Integration; Service binding; Spatial data infrastructure; Standards.

Need for a metadata information model

We definitively need first a metadata information model. Geographic catalog is rather data provider centric name for a system and a model, so we prefer a user centric 'metadata (information) model'. See OSGeodataMetadataModel for further discussion.

Need for a metadata exchange protocol

For general protocol requirements read OSGeodataMetadataProtocol. For proposals around the metadata information model requirements see OSGeodataMetadataModel. After having agreed on a better protocol there is also a need for a better name than 'Geographic Catalog Service or Protocol', like 'Geographic Metadata Harvesting Protocol'.
