6.2 Record, Document, and Encoding metadata Records, documents, and encodings can contain descriptive metadata.
Figure 7. Record, document, and encoding metadata in a VEO. Record-level metadata is intended to describe the record as a whole, including a description of the record and its context. Record-level metadata is based on the NAA metadata standard, with a few minor additions. The NAA metadata standard is based upon the AGLS [AGLS] metadata, which in turn is based on the Dublin Core metadata. Thus there is a strong family resemblance between Dublin Core, AGLS, NAA metadata, and the VERS record-level metadata. Document-level metadata describes a document within a record. The description is in relation to the other documents within the record. Document-level metadata is also based on the high-level NAA metadata classifications. Encoding-level metadata describes the encoding. The description is primarily technical, and has the goal of instructing future users (and computer systems) how to extract the document and render it. | |||||
