Hi,
In GeoNetwork opensource ( http://geonetwork-opensource.org ) we've
been using ISO19115 for a long time now. We are now finalizing a
release of the software that has among other things, support for the
following standards:
Metadata: ISO19115 validated against ISO19139 implementation standard.
FGDC
Dublin Core
Catalog: OGC CAT 1.0 & Z39.50
OGC CSW 2.0.1 based on the ISO profile
GeoNetwork opensource is an incubator project of OSGEO and can be
found at http://www.osgeo.org/geonetwork
We find it useful and have been using it to document large numbers of
spatial datasets. For example at http://www.fao.org/geonetwork (where
I work), http://vam.wfp.org/vamsie , http://geonetwork.unocha.org/
mapsondemand and http://csi.cgiar.org/geonetwork to name a few. All
these organizations share their metadata collections among catalogs.
Ciao,
Jeroen

In the geospatial standards community (I work for OGC), ISO 19115
is sort of a bible. The problem with this, and most ISO documents,
is that it's too abstract to design software around. You generally
need to go to another level of specificity to do real coding. For
example, the OGC catalog work <http://www.opengeospatial.org/
standards/cat> conforms to ISO 19115 and gets much closer to
something implementable.

Particularly "the cataloguing of datasets"
Has anyone read this? Is it useful?
