Hello Martin
I've attached the first page of my table. The differences seem to be of
various types.
Kind regards
Rob

I am working with the file:
https://github.com/Unidata/threddsIso/blob/master/src/main/resources/xsl/nciso/UnidataDD2MI.xsl
and comparing it with our SIS AttributeNames Class, and find several
path differences. Are you expecting this?
AttributeNames was written 4 years ago, so the UnidataDD2MI.xsl has
probably evolved since that time. But I would be surprised if the amount
of changes were massive. Could you post 2 or 3 examples? Maybe it is
just a recurring pattern written in different way.
Also some people are referring to ISO 19115-3 while I am on ISO 19115-2?
The "-3" is not a version number, but a part number. The ISO 19115
standard is splitted in 4 parts.
* ISO 19115-1 defines the most basic metadata (actually the largest
part of them).
* ISO 19115-2 is an extension of ISO 19115-1 which adds some metadata
more specific to imagery.
* ISO 19115-3 defines the XML representation of ISO 19115-1.
* ISO 19115-4 defines the XML representation of ISO 19115-2.
The version number is the publication year sometime appended at the end,
for example "2014" in ISO 19115-1:2014. There is (as far as I know) only
two versions of ISO 19115 parts 1 and 2:
* ISO 19115-1:2003 accompanied by ISO 19115-2:2009
* ISO 19115-1:2014 accompanied by ISO 19115-2:2017? (actually still
under development)
So in summary, Cullen worked on the XML representation (part 3) of the
metadata standard you are revisiting (parts 1 and 2).

Martin
