Abstract
Custom JSF Client for Accessing Z39.50 Metadata in ArcIMS Track: Metadata and Data Publishing Author(s): Amar Das Z39.50 is a national and international (ISO 23950) standard defining a protocol for computer-to-computer information retrieval. Unlike conventional metadata search, Z39.50 allows users to search metadata based on related tag information. Some example of Z39.50 implementations are the Library of Congress Catalog, NSDI/FGDC clearinghouse, etc. This paper will discuss how to publish Z39.50 compliant metadata in ArcIMS and build a custom JSF client to access the published metadata using Esri's libraries (.jar files). It will also discuss other relevant technologies and compares them with ArcIMS. Amar Das Perot Systems Mill Wharf Plaza Suite 208 Scituate , MA 02060 US E-mail: amar.das@perotsystems.com |
