Metacat is a repository for data and metadata (documentation about data) that helps
|
|
19
|
scientists find, understand and effectively use data sets they manage or that
|
|
20
|
have been created by others. Thousands of data sets are currently documented in
|
|
21
|
a standardized way and stored in Metacat systems, providing the scientific
|
|
22
|
community with a broad range of science data that--because the data are well and
|
|
23
|
consistently described--can be easily searched, compared, merged, or used
|
|
24
|
in other ways.
