Practical Metadata

Ok, moving on from the application metadata example (by the way, that was very helpful in ferreting out the principles of metadata design) - I am now researching interrogative metadata (who, what, when, where, why). The basic principle here is that the interrogatives are powerful vertices or axes to describing our data assets. In that, I am starting with "where" and geospatial metadata. Of course, there is a wealth of information on creating and using geospatial metadata. The Federal Geospatial Data Committee has a good site here. Also, geospatial one stop has some good pages on metadata creation.
More on this soon...
