A developer of software tools to support simple metadata creation wants to help manufacturers create useful, accurate, reproducible discovery metadata for their instruments. To do so, the developer plans to provide software that can analyze a list of parameters measured or produced by the device, and from that create a set of keywords that summarizes the functionality of the device. |

User workflow: |

| 7 |
1. Create metadata for the instrument using the tool, starting with parameters the instrument can measure. |
|---|
| 8 |
2. Press the 'Autofill Keywords from parameters' button. |

| 9 |
3. Software ascertains, from the measurable parameters and on ontology, the related keywords. |

Developer workflow: |
|---|
| 12 |
1. Obtain list of instrument measurement parameters that describe measurements that can be taken by instruments. |
|---|
| 13 |
2. Map the relationships between those parameters and higher-level categories of interest (e.g., science keywords, or instrument type). |
|---|
| 14 |
3. Build the tool to fill out the broader metadata by inference from the narrower metadata. |
