Should working with metadata really be that hard? The FAIR data principles state that the value of metadata is to make content findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. Increasingly, metadata is fundamental to geospatial ecosystems and to search, discovery, and artificial intelligence (AI) applications. How might the process be made easier and more effective? See how metadata is handled across the system and learn about current thinking and future directions to simplify and unify the (meta)data experience. Presenters share best practices, end-to-end workflows, and the use of the new metadata editor.
