- Metadata Storage Structure: not applicable
- Description:
- The Metadata Validation Service provides an on-line implementation of Peter Schweitzer's metadata parser to check conformance with the CSDGM. The user provides the URL to a metadata file in a form acceptable to mp and is returned an error report and an output file in HTML, ASCII, DIF or SGML.
- Cost: none
- Notable Plus:
- Scrolling windows into the error report and original metadata document simplify correction.
- Notable Minus:
- Does not support local extensions to CSDGM, or any of the output modifications possible with a local copy of mp.
