> The project includes tutorial materials and a software system 
> that can 
> be installed using commercial no-fee software (Cold Fusion 
> Express and 
> Access) and for-fee software (Oracle, full Cold Fusion) for the 
> collection of "Core" ISO 19115 metadata. An option is 
> included to export 
> the metadata into a recent draft form of ISO 19139, the XML

> entry and search of metadata, but it does not yet include a 
> standards-based search API such as Z39.50 or OGC Catalog Services for 
> use within a federated clearinghouse. Metadata may be exported to XML 
> for harvest or indexing in clearinghouse/portal systems.
