Owing to their simplicity of expression and ease of use for searching, MBRs (frequently as "bounding box" or "bounding coordinates") are also commonly included in relevant standards for [[geospatial metadata]], i.e. [[metadata]] that describes spatial (geographic) objects; examples include [http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-box/index.shtml DCMI Box] as an extension to the [[Dublin Core]] metadata scheme, "Bounding Coordinates" in the [http://www.fgdc.gov/standards/projects/FGDC-standards-projects/metadata/base-metadata/v2_0698.pdf (U.S.) FGDC metadata standard], and "Geographic Bounding Box" in the (2003–current) '''ISO 19115 Metadata Standard''' for geographic information ([[ISO/TC 211]]). It is also (as "boundingBox") an element in [[Geography Markup Language]] (GML), that is utilised by a range of Web Service specifications from the [[Open Geospatial Consortium]] (OGC). In the '''ISO 19107 Spatial Schema''' (ISO/TC 211), MBR appears as the datatype GM_Envelope that is returned by the envelope() operation on the root class GM_Object.
