The purpose of the service metadata schemas

The service metadata schemas provides a structured notation for describing services.

They aim to

  • facilitate harmonisation in describing services and
  • facilitate easier processing by systems. For example, the European SWIM Registry has developed functions to import and export service descriptions that use the schema. 

The schemas

  • benefit service providers in facilitating the production of service descriptions, including importing in registry and conformance to the SW specifications
  • benefit service consumers with enhanced harmonisation of service descriptions 
  • allow service descriptions to be processed by systems - this includes upload into a system, exchange between systems and transformation (e.g. to service overview).
