package com.luciad.format.metadata.model

This package and subclasses contain a domain model for describing ISO19115 metadata.

Metadata is extra information on data, which is not part of the data itself. An ancient form of such metadata is the legend you find on a paper map. While metadata is not part of the data (the map itself), it can tell you more about the data, e.g. the scale of the map, or who was responsable for the creation of the map. Metadata can help you

  • locate data they are interested in,
  • manage large data sets by archiving the data not solely based on its geographic extent,
  • evaluate available data,
  • publish data to interested parties.

The ISO 19115 standard defines a hierarchy of over 300 metadata characteristics to facilitate the exchange of metadata and (as a consequence) data. The root of this hierarchy is the class TLcdISO19115Metadata.
