This service attempts to improve the format of a plain text metadata record using cns (chew and spit). Provide a metadata record whose structure is approximately correct; the result, if you're lucky, will be one that follows the indented text format.

Notes:

• Input file must be plain text, smaller than 1024k bytes
• If your file is XML already, this will not help you; use the regular form of this service instead.
• Writing metadata? Get tools and help at https://geology.usgs.gov/tools/metadata/
• When your file is ready, you can use the mp variant of this service
• This service will recognize elements from
  • 1998 FGDC standard
  • Biological data profile
  • Shoreline profile
  • Remote sensing profile
  • Lidar extensions from USGS TM11-B4
• I want to hear about any problems you encounter so that I can fix them. Please let me know how it goes!
