Development

DCMI has a long history of fostering and supporting technical development and innovation through the activities of its community, often in partnership with other organisations. Following on from the development of the ubiquitous
DCMI Metadata Terms, the community has in more recent years focussed on the concept of the metadata
application profile, developing supporting frameworks and conceptual models such as the
Singapore Framework. Most recently, the
Application Profiles Interest Group has formed to address the next stage of development in this space.
