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

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF SPATIAL DATA HARVEST STANDARDS [PDF]
So far, thousand kinds of Spatial Data were acquired, produced, published and used for specialized applications. Heterogeneity is obviously one key problem for spatial data in the process of its creating, structuring or managing. The heterogeneity keeps

Geospatial Metadata for Discovery in Scholarly Publishing
Many scientific articles are related to specific regions of the Earth. The connection is often implicit, although geospatial metadata has been shown to have positive effects, such as detecting biases in research coverage or enhancing discovery of research. Scholarly communication platforms lack an explicit modelling of geospatial metadata. In this work,
