00:00
so in the social sciences we've had a problem that our data are created by
00:05
machine but our metadata are often made
00:08
by hand and one of the roadblocks has
00:11
been that projects use the major
00:15
statistical packages to do data
00:17
management and those packages are not
00:20
set up to handle metadata the sea to
00:24
metadata project is a project funded by
00:27
the US National Science Foundation and we're writing software that will read
00:32
the command scripts that are used to
00:35
manage data in the major statistical
00:38
packages extract from those command scripts provenance metadata about the creation of variables and then incorporate though that information into
00:49
data documentation initiative metadata
00:52
and also metadata for the ecological
00:54
markup language and the end goal is that
00:57
there should be a continuous automated process of capturing metadata that parallels the process of data creation
