The National Library of New Zealand's Metadata Extraction Tool automatically extracts preservation-related metadata from digital files, then output that metadata in XML formats. It can be used through a graphical user interface or command-line interface.
Please take the latest code from 'https://github.com/DIA-NZ/Metadata-Extraction-Tool.git'. The code on source forge will not be updated henceforth as it is moved to github.
The aim of MIEX (Metadata and Information Extractor from small XML documents) is to create a wrapper for the Stanford Parser, to extract and store metadata (syntactic structures, relationships among words...) from simple XML documents.
