A Method for Automating Geospatial Dataset Metadata [PDF]

open access: yesFuture Internet, 2009
Metadata have long been recognised as crucial to geospatial asset management and discovery, and yet undertaking their creation remains an unenviable task often to be avoided.

Raising Semantics-Awareness in Geospatial Metadata Management [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2018
Geospatial metadata are often encoded in formats that either are not aimed at efficient retrieval of resources or are plainly outdated. Particularly, the quantum leap represented by the Semantic Web did not induce so far a consistent, interlinked ...

Geospatial Open Data Usage and Metadata Quality [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021
The Open Government Data portals (OGD), thanks to the presence of thousands of geo-referenced datasets, containing spatial information are of extreme interest for any analysis or process relating to the territory.

Describing Geospatial Assets in the Web of Data: A Metadata Management Scenario

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2016
Metadata management is an essential enabling factor for geospatial assets because discovery, retrieval, and actual usage of the latter are tightly bound to the quality of these descriptions. Unfortunately, the multi-faceted landscape of metadata formats,

Approach to Facilitating Geospatial Data and Metadata Publication Using a Standard Geoservice

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2017
Nowadays, the existence of metadata is one of the most important aspects of effective discovery of geospatial data published in Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDIs).

Web-Scale Normalization of Geospatial Metadata Based on Semantics-Aware Data Sources

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2017
Geospatial metadata are largely denormalized inasmuch as resource descriptions typically accommodate property values as plain text. Hence, it is not possible to bring multiple references to the same entity (say, a keyword from a controlled vocabulary ...

Similarity Measurement of Metadata of Geospatial Data: An Artificial Neural Network Approach

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2018
To help users discover the most relevant spatial datasets in the ever-growing global spatial data infrastructures (SDIs), a number of similarity measures of geospatial data based on metadata have been proposed. Researchers have assessed the similarity of

Towards Evaluating Geospatial Metadata Quality in the Context of VGI

open access: yesProcedia Computer Science, 2017
Abstract: Volunteered geographic information (VGI) phenomenon offers an alternative mechanism for the acquisition of geospatial information. It has shown its effectiveness in various applications such as disaster management. However VGI suffers from a general lack of metadata quality assurance. This paper proposes an approach that aims to enhance VGI

TOWARDS SDG 4: TRADE-OFFS FOR GEOSPATIAL OPEN EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
Through the ISPRS scientific initiative presented in this paper, we aim to make geospatial educational resources available and discoverable to those who teach and those who want to learn. In earlier work, we designed and implemented a prototype catalogue
