An
indication of whether the metadata record refers to a data series or a dataset.
Data series metadata refers to a series or collection of spatial data which
share similar characteristics of theme, source, date, resolution and
methodology. The exact definition of what constitutes series metadata will be
determined by the data provider.
A dataset
may be a member of a data series.
Example:
The metadata record for "New South Wales DCDB Polygon/Tags" refers to a dataset series [the parent] The
metadata record for "Bathurst 883132N DCDB Polygon/Tags" refers to a dataset
that is one of a series [child]
