This paper discusses conception, classification, standards and applic ations of geographical metadata, then puts forward some solutions in developing a geographical meta data technical system (GMTS),including designing of geographical metadata base and realization of tool software. As a case,a GMTS of Jilin province agriculture in formation network(JPAIN)is introduced. Geographical metadata is descriptive info rmation about geographical referenced data.It usually describes content,quality, c onditions and other characteristics of spatial data set.In Internet/Intranet bas ed GIS applications,geographical metadata is not only an approach to describe and index data,but also a methodology to support building the operational model of data flow in network system,including data mining,data transforming,data management and data using.So it is necessary to develop powerful tool software in order to capture,check, store,process and use geographical data more effectively.JPAIN is a spatial Intranet,based on which agriculture data is captured,shared and applied in Jilin,a province in northeast China. As a main component of clearinghouse,GMTS provides
