Range Modeling Metadata Standards (RMMS) address three challenges:
they (i) are designed for convenience to encourage use, (ii) accommodate a wide
variety of applications, and (iii) are extensible to allow the community of range
modelers to steer it as needed. RMMS are based on a data dictionary that specifies
a hierarchical structure to catalog different aspects of the range modeling process.
The dictionary balances a constrained, minimalist vocabulary to improve
standardization with flexibility for users to provide their own values.
