www.isocat.org www.isocat.org The role of data categories in CMDI CMD components, elements and items can have links to concepts These links should be resolvable to a concept description This concept description gives explicitsemantics Elements and components can use different terminology but still have common semantics ISOcat provides resolvable links to the semantic description of data categories (DCs) CMD items: simple DCs CMD elements: complex DCs CMD components: container DCs (upcoming) 17 January /2011 CMDI tutorial 6

www.isocat.org www.isocat.orgStatus of the metadata profile Initial set of data categories has been created (to never disappear) by the Athens Core group But your own components might need your own specific DCs Translations for many EU languages have been added No ISO Standardization yet TDG is working towards starting up the process Athens Core group will become more prominent The addition of container DCs to be linked to CMD components is planned 17 January /2011 CMDI tutorial 9
