ISO/DTS 19139 – XML Schema implementation § „Given the abstract nature of the ISO 19115 specification, the actual execution of geographic information metadata could vary based on the interpretation of the metadata producers *). In an attempt to facilitate the standardization of implementations, this comprehensive dataset metadata implementation specification provides single UML interpretation and XML schema for carrying out the ISO 19115 metadata standard. This specification is meant to enhance interoperability by providing a common specification for describing, validating and exchanging metadata about geographic datasets, dataset series, individual geographic features, feature attributes, feature types, feature properties, etc. “ *) and it does, see WMO Core Metadata Profile XML vs other XML encodings of ISO 19115 GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 23 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb.

Proposed amendment to ISO 19119: 2005 § An amendment to Service Metadata defined in ISO 19119 has been proposed based on implementation experience and has been accepted by ISO/TC 211 as a new work item § Changes are proposed to the abstract schema, primarily concerning the relation between service metadata and dataset metadata. The extensions being proposed to ISO 19119 stem from requirements arising as a result of the practical experience being made with services in a Spatial Data Infrastructure in connection with and a nationwide catalogue service and the countries/states/regions bordering it. Hence the extensions are proposed from the background of usage within spatial data infrastructures, following the publish-find-bind principle.

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § The core metadata elements of ISO 19115 are included in the profile § XML encoding: It is expected that ISO/TS 19139 will become the de-facto standard for XML encoding of ISO 19115 data § Recommendations: § Use ISO/TS 19139 (not a WMO specific encoding) at least we communicating with external systems § If more economic, it may make sense to continue to use the current proprietary encoding internally in a system § Create a two-way mapping using XSLT between the two encodings to verify that a lossless mapping is possible GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 35 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § Catalog Service support: § It is expected that Catalog Services will be a standard mechanism to access metadata § Recommendation: § Map WMO Core Profile information to the core properties of the Catalog Service § Test use of the Catalog Service with WMO Core Profile § Extensions to ISO 19115 do not follow the extension mechanism specified in ISO 19115 § Recommendation: Revise the WMS Core Profile to use the extension mechanism of ISO 19115 (and ISO/TS 19139 for XML Schema); see in particular Annex C of ISO 19115 GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 36 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (394) allows only a single date and not a period § Recommendation: Delete “or period” (as the date. Types all reference an “instant”) or use the metadata extension mechanism § (143) must be a code list entry but the WMO description suggests that other data types may be used, too § Recommendation: Restrict to the use of the code list or use the metadata extension mechanism (n) row in the ISO 19115 data dictionary GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 37 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (39) is mandatory in the ISO 19115 Core metadata, but it is optional in he WMO Core Profile § Recommendation: Use a default value if data has no text in a language § (new) “irregular. Point. Set” is the domain of a multi point coverage for WMO internal use. For external use, the mandatory bounding box is used (currently codes are used to encode the irregular point sets). § Recommendation: Use the metadata extension mechanism GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 38 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (new) “keyword. Reference. Source” is meant to extend the topic category enumeration which is too restricted to be useful for WMO; the element is intended to be a detailed reference to a hierarchical, multi-language dictionary § Recommendation: Create, Publish and maintain the dictionary in a registry; XML encodings can be based on GML = ISO 19136 gml: Dictionary (can be used to define hierarchical dictionaries) or ISO 19139 CT_Catalogue (supports dictionaries with multi-lingual entries) § Reference this dictionary through thesaurus. Name citation GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 39 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (357) the axis orientation (sign. Convention) is part of the datum definition and not of the unit of measure information; however, this was considered important by WMO as it is a constant source of errors and ISO 19111 was considered insufficient § Recommendation: If the information shall be represented seperately, then an additional element should be defined using the extension mechanism to redundantly express this information – instead of encoding this in the unit information GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 40 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (new) Horizontal. Coordinate. Type is redundant as the coordinate reference system of a geometry object is always provided as part of it § Recommendation: Delete this metadata element; if the intention is to provide information about the coordinate reference system of the data (rather than the extent information), then this should be provided via the “reference. System. Info” element § (341, 342) The definition of “polygon” is not consistent with ISO 19107 (which is used by ISO 19115); also, a polygon may contain holes § Recommendation: Reference the types specified in ISO 19107 Spatial Schema GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 41 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (351) If the temporal primitive is not used, this is not an instance of EX_Temporal. Extent § Recommendation: Use the metadata extension mechanism to specify an extension of EX_Temporal. Extent where “extent” is a TM_Period (“begin. Date. Time”, ”end. Date. Time”) and “reference. Date. Time” is added as an additional element § (new) Calendar. Type § Recommendation: Verfify, if temporal reference systems as defined in ISO 19108 (and GML/ISO 19136) are insufficient for WMO; if yes, create a metadata extension according to the rules; if no, delete this element GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 42 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (68) The note regarding the “use. Limitiation” text is unclear. The data type is a free text, it is unclear what ISO parameters are § Recommendation: clarify § (285) Multiple formats § Recommendation: Encode as multiple MD_Format instances – not in a single “name” element GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 43 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § (new) WMO_Source (WMO centre identifier, required because currently a private, non-TCP/IP network is used, a URL is not sufficient) § Recommendation: Use the metadata extension mechanism to specify the additional element § (232) See Topic B. 3 GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 44 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 1: Consistency / potential issues of the WMO Core Profile § Other questions and recommendations: § (4) What are “standard character sets”? § (10, 11) should be fixed for a particular version of the WMO Core Profile; example: “WMO Core Profile”, “ 0. 2” § (187, 206): Do additional rules for the use and naming of coordinate reference systems exist? § (365): Do rules for unique identifiers exist? § (348, 349): Does a list of well known Gazetteers exist? Are these online-accessible? GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 45 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 2: key omissions preventing uptake of WMO data in other communities § Limited experience is available about which factors are key metadata elements and best practices to stimulate uptake of previously unknown data sets § Some recommendations: § Try to identify the questions asked by the (potential) users of other communities when looking for data that could be provided by WMO and assess whether the WMO core metadata answers the questions § Test the use of WMO core metadata using existing metadata tools, in particular how easy it is to execute the identified scenarios § Support metadata for both the initial discovery and the evaluation phase of metadata searches § Provide information in searchable registries, including codelists, thesauri, units of measurements, etc. GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 46 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 3: Feature types, features and coverages in WMO metadata (from ISO 19109) Feature Types are defined on the schema level Real-world objects (features) are instantiated as data; coverages are features GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 47 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 3: Feature types, features and coverages in WMO metadata Feature Catalogue and Coverage descriptions in 19115: § MD_Feature. Catalogue. Description is used to describe catalogues of feature types (not catalogues of features!) § MD_Coverage. Description and MD_Image. Description are used to describe individual coverages / images § Some examples of potential WIS feature catalogues seem to represent individual coverages; this is not the intention of a feature catalogue § MD_Coverage. Description is not sufficient for the requirements of WMO and would need to be extended to address the requirements § It should be checked in how far MI_Coverage. Description Feature of ISO/WD 19115 -2 addresses at least some of the issues GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 48 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb. H

Topic B. 3: Feature types, features and coverages in WMO metadata § Coverages are Features. Coverage types are Feature types. § Probably both descriptions (feature catalogue and coverage descriptions) are required in WIS: § It makes sense to describe the types of features (including coverages) that are provided by the WIS, otherwise potential users will have difficulties discovering the „data products“ offered through the WIS § In addition, it may also make sense to include specific coverage descriptions in the metadata, if it is expected that users may search or look for specific characteristics of the individual coverages Feature GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 49 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb.

Topic D: Identify high level “road map” § A high level “road map” for implementing a standardsbased metadata system to achieve the goals of WIS depends on the time frame, available resources and other constraints and conditions § In general, an iterative, spiral development approach with manageable steps, gradually increasing scope and prompt validation is highly recommended GI standards and the WIS - Clemens Portele - 11/28/2020 51 © 2005 interactive instruments Gmb.
