"The AuScope portal is the flagship consumer of SISS. It supports many known data discovery workflows of which some utilse existing information models such as Earth Resource Markup Language (ERML).
ERML is an information model which means, for our purposes, that it is a complex series of object relationships which ultimately allow multiple data providers to speak the same language. Put succinctly it aids in interoperability.
The ERML model allows you model various geological phenomena such as mines and their mineral commodities."
