Metadata Extraction Tool

This has been developed by the National Library of New Zealand and leads the way in being one of the first tools of its kind to extract preservation metadata from the headers of a range of file formats. The metadata standard used is the NLNZ preservation metadata schema, but it can be configured to support other business processes. Automatic extraction is a key development for the digital preservation community. The library have invited the community to comment on and experiment with the tool to inform its development.
