OIN Metadata Specification

Join the chat at https://gitter.im/openimagerynetwork/oin-metadata-spec

Any S3 buckets listed in the Register will need to follow a specification to enable valid indexing within a catalog instance. A metadata file is required for each image file in the bucket. An image file is an RGB GeoTIFF.This repository contains the metadata specification.
