What we’ve learned

● Metadata is used inconsistently across the research ecosystem

● Providers are unsure of their rights to share metadata

● Solutions will involve improvements to workflow, policy, and technical infrastructure

Where we’re going

● Analyze stakeholders’ current processes through which research passes from conception to completion

● Promote and reward policies that encourage data sharing

● Deploy multiple strategies to enhance metadata in open data set
