Representation (Metadata) Assignment

 - Foundations of Data and Information

  • §  This is a 2-part assignment.

    Part 1: Dublin Core Metadata Record

    Working the DCMI Metadata Terms http://www.dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/.
    § Create one “full” metadata record for an article, a webpage, a photograph, a book, OR data set

    representing a topic about our natural environment. For example, the object you select may

    represent ecology, botany, a natural disaster, weather data, etc.

§ Please work with the following encoding scheme:

Guidelines for implementing Dublin Core inTM XML https://www.dublincore.org/specifications/dublin-core/dc-xml-guidelines/

For your metadata record (a representation):

  • §  Use as many of the 15 DC (Dublin Core) elements (properties) as you can from the DCMES,

    version 1.1 when creating you’re your representation

  • §  You may also include additional elements (full level properties) from the DCTERMS namespace.

  • §  Show that you understand element repeatability.

  • §  Work with the DCTERM document: http://www.dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/ to

    include:
    o 2 examples of refinements.
    o 2 examples of encoding schemes. You may draw your values searching id.loc

    vocabularies at: http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects.html, or other tools.

    ELEMENT QUALIFICATION
    “REMINDER” A refinement narrows the meaning of an element (or property). How

    would you refine title? Ask yourself: What is a type of title?

    Software to help you:

    Simple generator: https://nsteffel.github.io/dublin_core_generator/generator_nq.html Advanced generator: https://nsteffel.github.io/dublin_core_generator/generator.html

 

There are two types of encoding schemes: Vocabulary encoding schemes; and syntax encoding schemes. Vocabulary encoding schemes contain content values (e.g., LCSH); and syntax encoding schemes recommend a grammar (ordering) for your content (YYYY-MM-DD).

PART 2: Metadata standard exploration

Explore a (single, just one!) metadata standard and examine supporting documentation too. Example standards are here and the RDA and DCC directory:

  • RDA Metadata Directory: http://rd-alliance.github.io/metadata-directory/

  • DCC (Digital Curation Center) Disciplinary Metadata:

    https://www.dcc.ac.uk/guidance/standards/metadata

    If you are having a challenge identifying a standard, or would like a recommendation, you may consider one of the below standards.

    § EAD (Encoded Archival Description): Look specifically at Appendix C and D to get a sense of the tags and their use: http://www.loc.gov/ead/tglib/index.html; and the EAD homepage is: http://www.loc.gov/ead/.

    § TEI (Text Encoding Initiative). TEI P5: Guidelines for Electronic Text Encoding and Interchange: http://www.tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/index.html (focus specifically on Chapter 2 and browse other chapter headings); for additional information visit the TEI Homepage: http://www.tei-c.org/Guidelines/).

    § DwC (Darwin Core): http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/index.htm
    Share your observations about the metadata standard you explored.

  • §  Consider the type/s of object/s (information, data) for which the selected metadata standard is used or applied to.

  • §  Do you see similarities with the standard you are exploring and the Dublin Core? If so, what is the same, and what is different?

  • §  Share additional observations. Include at least 5 observations.

  • §  A bulleted list of your observations is sufficient for this part of the assignment.

  • §  You may also do some extra detective work for this part of the assignment. For example, you

    may find supporting contextual material on the web, via a blog, an article, or a “how to do” manual--all of which may give insight into the standard you selected. If you take the step to find additional supporting information, please identify the extra resource/s you examined to help you learn more about the standard.
