Hi,

The element is irrelevant to datasets and series as far as I am aware. I presume a question was raised about this by a user, hence the request for change? The current wording is accurate, but I can see that being more explicit could help.

Thanks,

Pete

Subject: [Medin_standards] MEDIN Metadata Standard Element 10 - Spatial Data Service type

Dear colleagues,

I am writing to get your opinion on one of the elements in the MEDIN Discovery Metadata Standard (http://www.oceannet.org/marine_data_standards/documents/medin_schema_doc_2_3_8.pdf) . The element, 10: 'Spatial data service type' is currently marked as 'Conditional' in the Standard, but the text description of the element states 'Mandatory if the described resource is a service'.

I wonder whether you all could give me your views on whether you can see circumstances where this element could be applied to datasets or series, or whether you all consider it as applying to services only? The equivalent GEMINI 2.2 element carries a note that it is not applicable to datasets or series.

If the latter, I will amend the Metadata Standard so that it is reflected as mandatory for services only and not applicable to datasets or series.

Many thanks

Sean
