A Method for Automating Geospatial Dataset Metadata [PDF]
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]
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metadata are often encoded in formats that either are not aimed at efficient retrieval of resources or are plainly outdated.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]
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
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,

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