Metadata: Demonstration XML resource for series showing examples of good practice for MEDIN metadata creation
Abstract:
The abstract is where a summary of the data resource needs to be given, so that users can read it and decide if it is useful to them. It must be at least 100 characters long. This is demonstration series XML for the MEDIN metadata standard version v3.1.2.
Data holder:
British Oceanographic Data Centre

| Internal code | Internally assigned metadata identifier | 11575 |
| Title | The title is used to provide a brief and precise description of the dataset such as 'Date', 'Originating organisation/programme', 'Location' and 'Type of survey'. All acronyms and abbreviations should be reproduced in full. | Demonstration XML resource for series showing examples of good practice for MEDIN metadata creation |
| Alternative title | The purpose of alternative title is to record any additional names by which the dataset may be known. | Demonstration series XML for metadata standard version v3.1.2 |
| File Identifier | The File Identifier is a code, preferably a GUID, that is globally unique and remains with the same metadata record even if the record is edited or transferred between portals or tools. | cd8ec516-dc77-462c-8265-601fa86fdafd |
| Resource Identifier | This is the code assigned by the data owner. | MDI025600424 |
| Resource type | The resource type will likely be a dataset but could also be a series (collection of datasets with a common specification) or a service. | series |

| End date | This describes the date the resource ends. This may only be the year if month and day are not known | 2022-11-20 |
| Spatial resolution | This describes the spatial resolution of the dataset or the spatial limitations of the service. | 250 |
| Spatial resolution unit | This describes the unit of spatial resolution which for distance must be metres. | urn:ogc:def:uom:EPSG::9001 |
| Frequency of updates | This describes the frequency with which the resource is modified or updated i.e. a monitoring programme that samples once per year has a frequency that is described as 'annually'. | irregular |
