The CCLRC Scientific Metadata Model
- http://epubs.cclrc.ac.uk/bitstream/744/05__Brian_Matthews___csmd_core_grid_poland.pdf
- http://www-dienst.rl.ac.uk/library/2002/tr/dltr-2002001.pdf - The CLRC Scientific Metadata Model
- http://epubs.cclrc.ac.uk/bitstream/485/csmdm.version-2.pdf (September 2004)
The second reference is a hefty 95-page document, covering a range of scientific metadata issues in some detail, covering:
- Modelling scientific activity (Policies, programmes, studies, investigations, the last having measurements, simulations and experiments). Thus there is representation for a chain of relationships from high-level government policy to specific experimental records.
- Data holdings (raw, intermediate, final)
- Scientific study metadata (topic keywirds, study description, access control, legal, etc.)
These various areas are broken down into more detailed fields covering a range of largely administrative aspects of metadata elements -- there are some specifically scientific metadata elements (temperatures, pressures, units, etc.), but they are easily overlooked in the considerable bulk of organizational metadata elements; they are more easily spotted in the XML examples at the end of the paper.
The metadata, as implemented to date, is presented as XML. I expect it would easily be mapped to representation in RDF.
As far as the present project is concerned, based on feedback so far from institutional repositories, this CCLRC proposal has more relevance for indicating future directions that specific elements that were likely to encounter.
- http://epubs.cclrc.ac.uk/ - CCLRC has related ePubs Repository, using its own software drawing on ideas from FRBR. (Matthew Mascord wrote ePubs). (Dolores Iorizzo asked: "Could this be used to test integration of FRBR and CIDOC?")
