Students should be able to: differentiate between critical information attached to metadata; differentiate between different procedures used to create and maintain metadata; evaluate metadata and its components; and demonstrate to GIS users the how and why there are needs for documenting their data.. Prerequisite(s) or Corequisite(s): PSMA 6510 .
