Created on: Jun 21, 2013 Author: Matthew McCready This stylesheet was created to replace the 04_gmd_hierarchSet.xsl stylesheet. This was done to implement the latest version of the ISO metadata standard: 19115-1, released on May 5, 2013. In this new version, the HierarcyLevel attributes were replaced by the MD_Scope class to improve the description of the scope of the metadata. The MD_Metadata/hierchyLevel and MD_Metadata/hierchyLevelName elements were moved to the new MD_MetadataScope class in order to avoid ambiguity in cases were multiple scope codes and names are associated with a single record. The word hierarchy was dropped from the names because scopes can be used in non-hierarchial structures. codeListLocation#MD_ScopeCode series series codeListLocation#MD_ScopeCode software software codeListLocation#MD_ScopeCode service service codeListLocation#MD_ScopeCode dataset dataset hierarchyLevelName
