Federal Metadata Coordinator Webinar: ISO Geospatial Metadata Implementation
On April 16 and 17, 2013, the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) hosted half-day webinars that addressed several recommendations that came out of the FGDC sponsored Metadata Summit in October 2011 to help increase awareness about ISO geospatial metadata standards and develop strategies to move agencies forward with implementation. Through presentations and discussion during these two half day webinar sessions, the participants sought to:
- develop a common language and understanding of ISO geospatial metadata standards and implementation issues,
- focus on actions (roadmaps) required to transition an Agency to ISO metadata,
- identify available ISO metadata resources, and
- establish a community of practice with regular communication and interaction.
