ows:MetadataType

This element either references or contains more metadata about the element that includes this element. To reference metadata stored remotely, at least the xlinks:href attribute in xlink:simpleLink shall be included. Either at least one of the attributes in xlink:simpleLink or a substitute for the AbstractMetaData element shall be included, but not both. An Implementation Specification can restrict the contents of this element to always be a reference or always contain metadata. (Informative: This element was adapted from the metaDataProperty element in GML 3.0.)
