  1. MetaDater Metadata Management and Production System for surveys in Empirical Socio-economic Research

  2. General Objectives • Standardsto describe large scale of comparative surveys over space and time. • Toolsto create & manage respective metadata.

  3. Main Products • Metadata Model • Applications based on the model • MD-PRO Metadata Provider • MD-COLL Metadata Collector

  4. Metadata Model • Describes the collecting and processing of survey data within the logic of metadata. • Generic management and dissemination tasks like preserving, standardizing & exporting of metadata are part of the model. • Compatibility with the DDI standard - but the metadata model will be extended to describe also • data from time series and repeated comparative studies. • Distributed independently of the two applications

  5. MD-PROMetadata Provider application • Target Group- Data provider • large research institutes, data archives, data services • Tools to provide high quality metadata: • e.g. facilities for processing, quality management, standardisation & preservation of comparative and time-series surveys • Modular import- and export-routines for metadata in various formats • Open for exiting or new front-ends / MADIERA

  6. MD-COLLMetadata Collector application • Target Group - primary data collector: • primary investigator, middle-sized research services • Tools to set up metadata at is source: • Enter, edit & manage survey information from the start of the data collection on study & variable level • Data Processing support through access to relevant objects in the database • Basic publishing and export routines / MD-PRO

  7. Benefits of the MetaDater • MetaDater will be an infrastructure instrument • to improve the processing, managing & distribution of metadata by more efficient and economic procedures • to contribute to best practice in preservation & resource sharing of data and metadata • to supply end-userwith reliable, standardised, durable & high quality information about comparative survey data • to increase theknowledge baseabout European & global socio-economic developments • to foster research and secondary analysis in this fields

  8. The MetaDater Consortium • ZACO (67) Germany - Management, MD-PRO, Dissemination • DDACR (48) Denmark - User Analysis, System Architecture • EKKECR (43) Greece - Data Model • NIWICR (16) Netherlands - Usability • UGOTCR (37) Sweden • SIDOSCR (41) Swiss - MD-COLL • NSDAC (5) Norway • UKDA AC (5) Great Britain Resources: 260 PM - EU funding 1,284 Mill.
