CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM) is a conceptual model used in cultural heritage to enable information integration. It provides definitions and a structured framework to describe concepts, relationships, and data used in cultural heritage documentation. The CIDOC CRM, developed and maintained over a period of more than 20 years, was initially proposed by the CIDOC Documentation Standards Working Group and is currently managed by the CIDOC CRM SIG, both of which are working groups of the CIDOC Council. In December 2006, it received official recognition as an ISO standard, and this status was reaffirmed in 2014 under the ISO 21127:2014 designation.
The Component Metadata Infrastructure provides a framework to create and use self-defined metadata formats. It relies on a modular model of so-called metadata components, which can be assembled together, to improve reuse, interoperability and cooperation among metadata modelers. The model is standardised in ISO 24622-1 and ISO 24622-2. The serialization is typically in XML. Metadata in this format are often distributed via OAI-PMH. The definition of data categories is provided externally, for example by linking to schema.org or the Clarin Concept Registry.

By using DCAT to describe datasets in data catalogs, publishers are using a standard model and vocabulary that facilitates the consumption and aggregation of metadata from multiple catalogs, and in doing so can increase the discoverability of datasets. It also makes it possible to have a decentralized approach to publishing data catalogs and makes federated search for datasets across catalogs in multiple sites possible using the same query mechanism and structure. Aggregated DCAT metadata can serve as a manifest file as part of the digital preservation process.
DCAT-AP is an application profile of DCAT (Data Catalog Vocabulary W3C Recommendation) to be used in European data portals. It is a universal metadata scheme based on RDF, ready to be further profiled for specific domain needs.
LIDO is an XML schema intended for delivering metadata, for use in a variety of online services, from an organization’s online collections database to portals of aggregated resources, as well as exposing, sharing, and connecting data on the web. Its strength lies in its ability to support the typical range of descriptive information about objects of material culture. It can be used for all kinds of objects, e.g., art, architecture, cultural history, history of technology, and natural history. LIDO supports multilingual application environments. Being an application of the CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CRM), LIDO is the result of a collaborative effort of international stakeholders in the museum sector, starting in 2008, to create a common solution for contributing cultural heritage content to portals and other repositories of aggregated resources. LIDO is maintained under the patronage of CIDOC - ICOM International Committee for Documentation.
LRMOO, formerly known as FRBoo, is an extension, developed in collaboration with IFLA, for bibliographic information and library cataloguing. It provides a conceptual framework for describing bibliographic entities and their relationships in a structured manner by introducing classes, properties, and relationships that allow for the representation of bibliographic resources, such as books, articles, and other library materials, along with their authors, editions, and related works.
LRMoo facilitates the organization and retrieval of bibliographic information by providing a consistent and standardized approach to cataloguing. It enables the modelling of complex relationships between different versions, translations, and editions of a work, as well as the association of works with their creators and subjects.
The MEDIN Discovery Metadata Standard is a marine profile of the UK government Standard GEMINI and also complies with other international conventions such as INSPIRE and ISO19115.
MIxS is a superset of metadata elements that can be used to compile minimum information checklists for reporting sequencing data. It was developed by the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC) as an overarching framework that could act as a single entry point for all their minimum information checklists (as reported in Nature Biotechnology).
MIxS includes the technology-specific checklists from the previous MIGS and MIMS standards (for genomes and metagenomes respectively), provides a way of introducing additional checklists such as MIMARKS (for marker sequences), and also allows annotation of sample data using environmental packages.
MOD (Metadata for Ontology Description and Publication Ontology) is a metadata schema designed to describe semantic artefacts, such as ontologies, vocabularies, and terminologies, in a standardized and FAIR-compliant way. Developed in the RDA Vocabulary Service Interest Group (VSIG) then within the FAIR-IMPACT EOSC project, MOD is based on DCAT2 and builds on existing metadata standards like DC, Schema.org, ADMS, etc. to provide a structured framework for capturing essential information about these artefacts, including their provenance, licensing, versioning, and usage. The schema facilitates interoperability between ontology repositories and enables better discovery, reuse, and integration of semantic resources in various domains. It is the baseline for MOD-API a Web service API specification for operations on semantic artefact catalogues. MOD is openly available on GitHub, where it is maintained and extended based on community input.
Open Data for Access and Mining (ODAM) Structural Metadata is a format describing how the metadata should be formatted and what should be included to ensure ODAM compliance for a data set. To comply with this format, two metadata files in TSV format are required in addition to the data file(s). These two files describe the metadata of the dataset, which includes descriptions of measures and structural metadata like references between tables. The metadata lets non-expert users explore and visualize your data. By making data interoperable and reusable by both humans and machines, it also encourages data dissemination according to FAIR principles. The structural metadata is specified in section 'Data collection and preparation' on the website.

TEI/EPIDOC is a collaborative effort that combines the expertise of EpiDoc and the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI). It establishes standardised guidelines and tools for encoding scholarly and educational editions of ancient documents, embracing inscriptions, papyri, manuscripts, and other text-bearing objects. By leveraging a subset of TEI's standard, TEI/EPIDOC enables the representation of texts in a digital form while also addressing the historical context and materiality of the objects.
This comprehensive approach allows scholars to publish digital editions that not only encompass the transcription and editorial treatment of the texts but also provide insights into the objects themselves. As a result, TEI/EPIDOC enriches our understanding of ancient civilizations and facilitates the dissemination of knowledge about their tangible heritage.
TEI/EPIDOC is currently employed by the EAGLE Project and Epigraphy.info.
