Specification of the MET Norway discovery and configuration metadata standard. This is compatible with ISO19115 (various profiles), DataCite and GCMD DIF.
The repository contains the MMD standard (in the xsd
folder), its
documentation (in the docs
folder), xml-files to handle translation
between various metadata standards and MMD (in the xslt
folder),
conversion scripts and examples (in the src
folder), and example
metadata for example datasets (in the input-examples
folder).
Documentation was originally provided in OpenDocumentFormat. This became to difficult to maintain in a collaborative environment and it is now moved to ASCIIDOC following the example outlined by the Climate and Forecast convention community.
In order to build the documentation use the following command
HTML: asciidoctor -n mmd_specification.adoc
PDF: asciidoctor-pdf -n mmd_specification.adoc
