These FRs contain the spatial and temporal domain contained in each data file. The DIF-style metadata (the DSD and its children FRs) are converted to a single FGDC record for each NODC GHRSST accession, which can consist of several discrete data files. This conversion is accomplished using an XML stylesheet which builds a framework FGDC record based on the DSD, and populates it with one Entity for each data file based on the FRs. These Entities are given three Attributes: Latitude, Longitude, and Time. The Range Domain Minimum and Maximum elements within each of those Attributes are use to describe the spatial and temporal domain contained in the data file. So, for example, the Range Domain Minimum for the Attribute Latitude corresponds to a South Bounding Coordinate for that Entity.
