NAME
v.sdts.meta - Interactive menu-driven utility to create and install
supplementary metadata and data quality reports for a vector map, preparatory
to their incorporation in an SDTS transfer dataset.
(GRASS Vector Data Export/Processing Program)
SYNOPSIS
v.sdts.meta
DESCRIPTION
This menu-driven Tcl/Tk program enables the user to prepare and install supplementary
metadata and data quality reports for a vector map preceding the creation of
an SDTS transfer dataset. With v.sdts.meta, metadata and data quality
files
can be edited, saved, retrieved, and modified, and then installed in the
GRASS database in association with a particular vector map layer.
Subsequently, v.out.sdts will incorporate this metadata along with the
associated vector map in an SDTS transfer dataset.
In addition to the five data quality modules, supplementary metadata items
currently able to be edited and installed include
- (1) creation
date for the original source map;
- (2) a general TITLE for the transfer;
- (3) a general comment about the transfer;
- (4) name of geographic
datum;
- (4) and (5), name and definition for the kind of entity contained in
the GRASS vector layer being transferred;
- (6) and (7) custom definitions for
the dig_att and dig_cats values being transferred.
