Hi Saher,
ISO 19139 is an XML implementation of ISO 19115. It uses W3C XML Schema
(XSDs) to implement the different ISO 19115 UML classes into XML. (ISO
19115 is a meta model and hence needs an implementation for it to be
used. The XSDs provide an XML implementation). There has to be an
implementation of the meta model for ISO 19115 to be used, otherwise
there is no way of proving compliance to the ISO 19115 standard.
GeoNetwork uses the ISO 19139 as an XML implementation of ISO 19115.
If a metadata record is validated against the ISO 19139 XSDs (which
GeoNetwork does during the validation process) then it is accepted by
the ISO TC 211 community as being a valid implementation of ISO 19115.
IE. It is a valid ISO 19115 XML document.
I will gladly expand on this if you have more specific questions.
I hope this helps.

Hi John,
Thank you so much. It is helpful and I would really appreciate if you could elaborate it little more w.r.t ISO-19139, as I'm using this standard for our metadata.
Best Regards,
Saher

Subject: Re: [GeoNetwork-users] Definition of metadata views: purpose of ISO Minimum view
Hi Saher et al,
The 'minimum' set are the elements that must be completed to be ISO
19115 compliant. This includes mandatory elements and some elements that
become mandatory upon a condition. Then do *not* include mandatory
elements that are sub-elements that are not being used. EG. title within
authority if authority is not used.
I have found the core elements to be confusing. Hence I wanted them to
be removed from ISO 19115-1 but I was voted down. The 'core' elements
are elements that are highly recommended but not mandatory. IE. They
don't have to be completed to be ISO 19115 compliant. However, these
core elements, if completed, will assist in discovery of resources.
I hope this helps. If you need more information I can expand on the
above.
