Introduction
Welcome to the XMDR Project
This project is concerned with the development of improved standards and technology for storing and retrieving the semantics of data elements, terminologies, and concept structures in metadata registries.

Existing metadata registry standards include the ISO/IEC 11179 family of Metadata Registry standards (e.g., ISO/IEC 11179, ISO/IEC 20943, and ISO/IEC 20944). We intend to propose extensions of the ISO/IEC 11179 family of metadata registry standards to support more diverse types of metadata and enhanced capabilities for semantics specification and queries.

  • Propose revisions to ISO/IEC 11179 Metadata Registry (MDR) Standard.
  • Creation of a prototype extended metadata registry.
  • Loading some terminologies / ontologies into the prototype XMDR.
  • Explore technologies for providing access to the XMDR across the Internet.
