Paste into an RFQ, studio brief, methods section, or teaching brief.

---

Landscape metadata interchange shall use the open TLA-185 field registry and
JSON Schema modules published at schema.landscapearchive.org. Vendor
implementations may declare scope via published capability grant manifests.
This is a non-commercial reference specification under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 and does
not require purchase of a specific commercial product. Where the brief requires
Landscape Archive–attested deliverables, submit a licensed Landscape Archive
package from an authorised organisation (see landscapearchive.com.au/authorised);
Archive Seal marks may be required for pack attestation. Commercial Library,
Hub, Studio+™, populated datasets, and software remain separately licensed.
