Post comment/reviewWhat is Metadata Editor?
The Metadata Editor is an open-source web-based application developed by the Office of the Chief Statistician at the World Bank. It is designed to assist data curators in documenting data of various types according to specialized metadata standards. The application currently supports the following data types and corresponding metadata standards:
- For microdata (from surveys, censuses, or other sources): DDI CodeBook 2.5.
- For publications and reports: Dublin Core, enhanced with selected elements from other standards (BibTeX, MARC21).
- For indicators (or time series): A custom metadata schema created by the World Bank by compiling metadata schemas from multiple organizations.
- For geographic dataset and services: ISO 19139 (ISO 19115 / ISO19110 / ISO19119).
- For images: IPTC and Dublin Core.
- For videos: A combination of Dublin Core and elements from schema.org.
- For research projects and scripts: A custom metadata schema created by the World Bank.
