Summary: | This paper discusses an alternative process for the extraction and documentation of metadata using free open software to increase efficiency and providing incentive to the generation of metadata for the data produced in Brazil. The authors performed the customization of the MGB profile using CatMDEdit software for viewing and editing the metadata in this profile. This tool was also used to extract and document metadata from files in shapefile format and to edit metadata fields after extraction. The file generated in XML was imported and converted to an MGB profile contained in the application Geonetwork. The results show that it is possible to extract information contained in the data and easily and quickly generate metadata in MGB profile, if the activity is well planned and supported by model files (templates). |
