How Can I Use Metadata For Easier GIS Data Sharing? - CountyOffice.org

Описание: How Can I Use Metadata For Easier GIS Data Sharing? Are you involved in property research or real estate and want to improve how you share geographic data? In this video, we explain how proper use of metadata can make your GIS data sharing more effective and reliable. We cover what metadata is, including key elements like dataset titles, descriptions, creation dates, and geographic details such as coordinate systems and area coverage. Understanding how to create and interpret metadata helps ensure everyone involved in property transactions or land management is on the same page, reducing confusion and errors.

We discuss common standards like ISO 19115 and Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) guidelines that promote consistency across different data sources. Metadata acts as a searchable catalog, enabling quick access to land parcels, zoning boundaries, flood zones, and environmental restrictions without needing to contact multiple agencies. It also plays a vital role in data management, allowing organizations to keep track of data updates, sources, and limitations—key for property appraisers, title companies, environmental consultants, and other professionals.

This video provides practical tips on creating comprehensive metadata using available tools and following official standards. Properly documented data makes workflows smoother, improves decision-making, and helps protect all parties involved in property transactions. Incorporating metadata into your data sharing practices leads to better organization, communication, and accuracy in property research and real estate activities.
