[Qgis-user] QGIS in INSPIRE, QAntarctica etc (Metadata)

[Falk Huettmann]

Dear all,

as Paolo suggested,
I should ask the list, so here I do:

"QGIS does have support to metadata. In fact, INSPIRE EU officials have
run extensive tests, and it is more compliant than any other GIS".

Could somebody please point me to details and to follow up on  ?

There are four questions in this:
-what about the U.S. and China government and their buy-in with this, aka
none?

-if there is ISO compliance, how can there be different fractions  and some
being ignored
(e.g. FGDC and USGS)?

-I have 'good' ISO compliant xml metadata files for try out, but they are
not loading into QGIS qmd; we need a cross-platform approach to cater
biology, geology, geography and social data. How done ?.

-real-world example: Antarctica is to have mandatory data, and with
metadata; for global mankind. Norway runs and offers a QGIS-based Antarctic
concept, but widely without relevant metadata.
https://www.qgis.org/en/site/about/case_studies/antarctica.html
They would be a typical example for us; looks like a violation of the
Antarctic Treaty even; not ?

Thanks again, more later
