Abstract:
The Three Tab Editor is a user interface for entering Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) and ISO Metadata for ArcCatalog.
-It is composed of only four simple data entry pages, so there is less hunting and pecking for the required metadata fields.
-It writes the metadata to the ESRI metadata file found in any data set supported by ArcInfo 9.x (e.g. Coverages, Shape Files, Geo Databases, SDE Databases...)
-It allows the user to input the contact information once, and then it populates all three contact information sections with this contact data (e.g.. metadata creator, data creator, and data request contact).
-Pick lists are provided for most of the data entry fields. These pick list provide either a sample of the potential value, or a list of the potential domains that can be used in that field. These pick list can also be edited via the metadata.mdb file found in "C:\Program Files\ThreeTabEditor" directory
-The theme keyword pick list used by this editor is compatible with those required by the ArcIMS Metadata Server.
-Completion of the fields found in this editor will allow the user to meet the minimal ISO metadata standard.
-The editor is designed to allow users who complete all fields to pass through the metadata parser (mp) with minimal errors.
-The editor is linked to a Microsoft Access database that can be used to store your contact information and pull down lists. This database can be found in the tools installation directory (e.g. c:\Program Files\ThreeTabEditor).
-On-line linkage exists to the Image Map of the Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM) from the tools interface. This provides user with a quick reference of how to complete the fields.
