TL;DR: MP is a program for validating the syntactical structure of formal metadata, testing the structure against the Content Standards for Digital Geospatial Metadata devised by the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC).
Abstract: MP is a program for validating the syntactical structure of formal metadata, testing the structure against the Content Standards for Digital Geospatial Metadata devised by the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC). MP is described as a compiler because it contains not only a lexical parser but also code to analyze the tree that the parser generates, and code to output the metadata in several different formats. It is written in Standard C (i.e. ANSI C) and runs on Linux, UNIX, and all versions of Microsoft Windows (95 and later, including Windows 10). MP generates a textual report indicating errors in the metadata, primarily in the structure but also in the values of some of the scalar elements (i.e. those whose values are restricted by the standard). Output formats include text (the same as the input format), Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Directory Interchange Format (DIF). MP has the ability to recognize and process elements that are not part of the FGDC standard, provided these elements are properly described in a local file.
