Definition: Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP)

By Jack Krupansky

Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) is a labeling technology in the form of an open standard framework created by Adobe Systems, Inc. based on a subset of RDF/XML for the definition, creation, and processing of extensible metadata, such as description, title, keywords, date, author, and copyright information, that can be embedded in a number of popular file formats, including PDF and various image formats, primarily for the purpose of tagging and labeling files in those formats.

See Adobe Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) web site.
