GM03 - the metadata standard for Switzerland

The Swiss metadata model GM03 is a Swiss standard SN 612050. GM03 is a profile of the international metadata standard ISO 19115. Several extensions have been made to meet the various requirements of Swiss partners.

GM03 consists of the following two models :

- GM03 Core, the basic model

- GM03 Comprehensive, the extended model

The GM03 models can be found at models.interlis.ch/geocat.ch/. The models with some accompanying files on GM03 can also be downloaded here.

Note: If the version of the INTERLIS model published here differs from the version published in the Model Repository, the version posted in the Model Repository applies.
