Quevedo I and Vanderbilt K . 2025. NPS Metadata Template. National Park Service. Inventory and Monitoring Division, 1201 Oakridge Drive, Suite 150 Fort Collins, Colorado 80525-5596
Metadata is key component of a Data Package (https://doimspp.sharepoint.com/sites/nps-nrss-imdiv/data-publication/SitePages/dp-specs.aspx), as it helps others to understand your data and assess whether it’s a good fit for a particular purpose. This template can help organize all the bits of information that must come together to create metadata inside of your data package, including NPS and DataStore specific metadata elements. Overall guidance on metadata and data packages can be found on the NPS Data Publication Best Practices SharePoint site (https://doimspp.sharepoint.com/sites/nps-nrss-imdiv/data-publication).
