+# GCP Semantic Conventions
+
+This directory defines standards for resource attributes that only apply to
+Google Cloud Platform (GCP). If an attribute could apply to resources from more than one cloud
+provider (like account ID, operating system, etc), it belongs in the parent
+`semantic_conventions` directory.
