MaaS - Metadata as a Service
FOSS4G SOTM Oceania 2023

Do you or the organisations you support find producing useful, standards-compliant metadata challenging? While many places exist to publish metadata for your resources, modern, easy-to-use tools for creating metadata are hard to find. We propose providing an OSGeo based managed service to ease metadata creation.

OpenWork is proposing a managed service to take the complexity and overhead out of the metadata creation process. This proposal stems from work that OpenWork has provided the ICSM Metadata Working Group creating the web-based ANZMetLive V2 hosted by Geoscience Australia and the ANZLIC ISO19115-1 Best Practice guide. OpenWork proposes to offer an extended version of the GeoNetwork based ANZMetLive V2 in a managed environment to ease the creation and validation of metadata to be used in the catalogue of one's choice. Each account would provide a customised environment for users to create metadata that fits their organisation's requirements.
