The ocean color remote sensing metadata describes the content, quality, condition, and other characteristics of ocean color remote sensing data. Paper presents a metadata standard draft based on XML, and gives the details of main ocean color remote sensing metadata XML elements. The ocean color remote sensing data platform-sharing is in developments as a part of the digital ocean system, on this basis, the ocean color remote sensing metadata directory service system based on web service is put forward, which aims to store and manage the ocean color remote sensing metadata effectively. The metadata of the ocean color remote sensing data become the most important event for the ocean color remote sensing information more retrieved and used.
