DESCRIPTION
r.info.iso creates metadata of raster maps according
to ISO
19115.
The module also allows conversion of metadata from native GRASS GIS format
to ISO-based format.
NOTES
For dependencies and installation instructions see
wiki page.
Naming of metadata files and storage
Default location for exported metadata files is
metadata directory in the map's mapset. If the name for output
metadata file is not specified by output option than the name
is built from map's type and its name. For raster maps, the prefix
derived from the current nomenclature is raster, for vector
maps vector. File ends with .xml extension.
For example default metadata file name for raster map
"elevation" is cell_elevation.xml.
Metadata profile
The basic profile is substituted from intersection between
items stored in GRASS native metadata format and INSPIRE profile. The
intersect (subset) includes all available GRASS metadata. Metadata
which cannot be assigned to ISO based attributes are stored in
metadata attribute abstract. The inspire profile
fulfills the criteria of INSPIRE profile. Values which are not able to
get from native GRASS metadata are filled by text
string '$NULL'. This rule applies to both profiles.
EXAMPLES
Export metadata using basic profile (default):
Export metadata using inspire profile:
r.info.iso map=elevation profile=inspire
