5.2 Namespaces

Several prefixes are used throughout this document to designate XML namespaces. Table 1 lists the namespaces used in this document and the specifications in which they are defined; these bindings shall be assumed in the absence of an explicit declaration. The prefixes are not normative and are merely employed for convenience—they may appear in examples without being formally declared, and have no semantic significance. The namespaces to which the prefixes correspond are normative, however.

6.1 Essential capabilities

The essential purpose of a registry service is to enable a human or software agent to locate, access, and use resources of interest. The metadata repository managed by the catalogue can be used to store resource descriptions that conform to any standard Internet media type, including but not limited to: service descriptions, data descriptions, schemas, thumbnail representations of remotely sensed images, specification documents, or a summary map of nodes in a sensor network. Furthermore, relationships among catalogued items can be expressed by creating links
