Metadata in catalogues represent resource characteristics that can be queriedand presented for evaluation and further processing by both humans and software.Catalogue services are required to support the discovery and binding to registeredinformation resources within an information community.This part of the Catalogue Services standard describes the common architecture for OGCCatalogue Services. This document abstractly specifies the interfaces between clients andcatalogue services, through the presentation of abstract models. This commonarchitecture is Distributed Computing Platform neutral and uses UML notation. Separate(Part) documents specify the protocol bindings for these Catalogue services, which buildupon this document, for the HTTP (or CSW) and OpenSearch protocol bindings.An Abstract Conformance Test Suite is not included in this document. Such Suites shallbe developed by protocol bindings and Application Profiles (see 8.5, ISO/IEC TR 10000-2:1998) that realize the conformance classes listed herein. An application profileconsists of a set of metadata elements, policies, and guidelines defined for a particularapplication1.OGC document number 14-014r3 HTTP Protocol Binding Abstract Test Suite isavailable to address conformance with the provisions of OGC document number 12-176r7 HTTP Protocol Binding.
