3.6.2: Format-Related Metadata

Associate Format-Related Metadata

Other Information:

Users and systems can employ the elements of format descriptors to specify the extent (e.g., size and dimension), type, and physical manifestation of assets. The format descriptors element set of the DDMS (see Figure 7) supports interoperability by allowing systems and users to determine the physical manifestation of data assets, which in turn helps to identify which tools and capabilities are required to use the asset.
