[Medin_standards] Blind to the blindingly obvious

[Lowry, Roy K.]

Dear All,

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.

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.

Cheers, Roy.

Please note I now work part-time and may not respond to e-mail from Friday to Monday.
