Description:

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has recently set up a Metadata Working Group to take responsibility for standards for specification and management of metadata. The scope of the Working Group includes metadata elements, classification and coding schemes, and metadata management and exchange. It is organized under ISO's Joint Technical Committee on Information Technology (JTC 1), Subcommittee 32, Data Management and Interchange. ISO already has a related standard, ISO 11179, Specification and Standardization of Data Elements. For the moment, there is no electronic access to the content of ISO standards.
