Title: Example Metadata template for use with the CSC Online MD Builder (MDB)

Description:
Abstract:
This data/metadata record is a total fabrication to be used in
demonstrating the use of the CSC online metadata builder.
IT HAS NO RELATIONSHIP TO ANY REAL DATA SET.
Purpose:
To illustrate the replacement of text chunks that will change from
one record to the next with a tag. MetaScribe will provide the user
with an input field for each distinctly named tag.

Use_Constraints:
Data set is not for use in litigation. While efforts have
been made to ensure that these data are accurate and
reliable within the state of the art, NOAA, cannot assume
liability for any damages, or misrepresentations, caused
by any inaccuracies in the data, or as a result of the data
to be used on a particular system. NOAA makes no warranty,
expressed or implied, nor does the fact of distribution
constitute such a warranty.
Additional Use Constraints:

Native_Data_Set_Environment:
ERDAS Imagine 8.4 on SUN Ultra 60, UNIX 5.8
Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
An explanation of the accuracy of the identification of the
entities and assigment of values.... This work was done very
carefully. The instruments were calibrated to some specification
to achieve some base accuracy level. Calculations performed on
the raw data made use of least unit measure and significant digit
principles to report any derive values. and so on.....
Logical_Consistency_Report:
Tests for logical consistency indicate that all row and
column positions in the selected latitude/longitude
window contain data. Conversion and integration with vec-
tor files indicates that all positions are consistent
with earth coordinates covering the same area. Attribute
files appear to be logically consistent. Examining the
change matrix for logical fallacies, we find, for example,
that a very small number of pixels changed from developed
land to any other category.
Completeness_Report:
The classification scheme comprehensively includes all
anticipated land covers, and all pixels have been
classified.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
Precision corrected images were purchased from the EROS
Data Center in UTM NAD27 meters to an RMSE +/- 0.5 pixels.
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy:
Vertical_Positional_Accuracy_Report: There was no terrain
correction in the georeferencing procedure.

Process_Description:
Large chunks of this section, as with all
sections, have been deleted to shorten this example
template. The technical information in this record
CAN NOT be used in any manner. It has been totally
corrupted. The processing steps for each <project_name

label="Title:"> product are intricately associated. Each
database is the result of many processing steps with
numerous iterations for each step. The output of
one processing step or database is often the
input data for another processing step. A brief
description of the processing steps used in the
land cover classification of the this project
follows. Large chunks of this section, as with all
sections, have been deleted to shorten this example
template. The technical information in this record
CAN NOT be used in any manner. It has been totally
