Affected Public: Federal, State, Local and Tribal governments, Private Sector, and others involved in the development of ISO geospatial metadata. Respondent’s Obligation: None. Participation is voluntary. Frequency of Collection: Following its initial collection from editor developers, the information will be reviewed at least annually. As part of the annual review, all editor developers listed in the registry will be contacted and requested to update their information, if needed, via the login-based online form. Additionally, all NSDI stakeholders will be reminded via Web posting at the FGDC Web site (www.fgdc.gov) and community-of-practice networking that new editors may be added to the registry. Estimated Annual Number of Respondents: Approximately 10. Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: Approximately 10 responses (i.e., additions to the registry) are expected in the initial data collection phase (first year). In subsequent years, annual additions to the registry are expected to be 5 or fewer. Estimated Time per Response: We estimate that it will take one hour per person to document a single editor for inclusion in the registry. In future years, review of editor information to ensure currency or identification of new editors is expected to require de minimis effort. Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 10 hours in year one and less than 5 in each subsequent year. Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’ Burden: None.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    As National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) stakeholders move 
forward with the implementation of the International Organization for 
Standardization's (ISO) 191** series of geospatial metadata standards, 
there is increasing demand for information about applications/editors 
that can be used to create ISO compliant metadata records. The USGS, 
through the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) Office of the 
Secretariat (www.fgdc.gov), proposes development of an online 
registration system for developers of ISO Geospatial Metadata Editors 
to voluntarily describe their metadata tools. Developers will be asked 
to include information such as features of the editor, its 
functionality, supported standards, and point of contact information 
through a login-based, online form. The FGDC Metadata Working Group 
(MWG) (www.fgdc.gov/participation/working-groups-subcommittees/mwg/), 
whose membership represents Federal, State, Local and Tribal 
governments and the Private Sector, has requested the development of 
the registry as a useful tool to learn about available ISO Geospatial 
Metadata Editors. Since the information about the editors may be of 
interest or utility to others implementing ISO geospatial metadata 
standards, the FGDC will make the information collected available on 
the Web in the form of a simple registry-type database. FGDC MWG 
members as well as non FGDC MWG members including geospatial metadata 
implementers from private sector, academia, all forms of government, 
and the general public, will have read-only access to the editor 
information published in the registry.
