<div>Dear All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You may remember some communications a little while back concerning the ISO19119 taxonomy keywords being mandatory for INSPIRE-compliant ISO19139 documents. One very significant point that I missed – and I guess I won’t be alone – is that the ISO19119
taxonomy is a categorisation of services. It is therefore only relevant to service metadata and not to dataset metadata, which is why we hadn’t come across it in the context of SeaDataNet metadata. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>However, I’m guessing some MEDIN, NERC metadata and other Gemini II-flavour documents will be related to services and for these an ISO19119 keyword will be mandatory for INSPIRE compliance.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers, Roy.</div>
