Metadata (book with question mark)

Metadata is about data relating to other data. Typed metadata information can annotate any X3D node, either for use offline or for queries within an active scene graph at run time. Metadata nodes include MetadataDouble, MetadataFloat, MetadataInteger, MetadataString, MetadataSet, and (in X3D version 3.3) MetadataBoolean.

The supporting Chapter 15 Metadata Information is available online via X3dGraphics.com.
