Version 0.2 of the WMO CORE Metadata Profile of ISO19115

WMO Core profile metadata XML schema .\WMO19115_metadata_v0_2.xsd

WMO Core Profile sub-schemas in XML schema

These are all "include"d into the metadata schema as they share the same namespace

http://www.wmo.ch/web/www/metadata

The large schema in v0.1 was broken up into modules representing ISO19115 classes in a similar way to GML or ISO19136. All local elents were made global to allow extension and versioning in a similar way to GML, although the abstract classes and substitutionGroups of GML were not used. The style was closely taken from the existing schema to maintain a good degree of backward compatibility.

Except for the ET-IDM3 and 4 additions, almost exactly the same xml structure as v_0.1 results.

The cutDown Schema described below can now be derived directly from the v0.2 metadata schema.

XInclude local store for schema

This is "import"ed into the metadata schema as it has a different namespace

http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude

This allows links to other XML documents or to extract pieces of other XML documents to be incorporated into the current document

.\XInclude.xsd

Earlier examples from ETIDM 2 and 3

From Agriculture

This required only an element name change (geograpgicBoundingBox to boundingBox) and an earlier change to the namespace

AGmet.xml

An early specification of a GRIB set for dissemination

This required only an element name change (geograpgicBoundingBox to boundingBox) and an earlier change to the namespace

GRIB_forecast_file.xml

From Hydrology

This was submitted for view by Thomas Maurer of the Global Runoff Data Centre (GRDC) in the Federal Institute of Hydrology (BfG). There were some incompatibilities, mostly expecting free strings where enumerated list values were needed from the Codelists schema.
