Metadata facilitates and supports the discovery, identification, organisation and interoperability of research outputs. Having rich metadata helps maximise exposure, reuse and citation of research findings.

The Australian Child and Youth Wellbeing Atlas adheres to UWA Pure as our metadata standard, covering all mandatory items from ISO 19115.

ISO 19115-1:2014 defines the schema required for describing geographic information and services by means of metadata. It provides information about the identification, extent, quality, spatial and temporal aspects, content, spatial reference, portrayal, distribution, and other properties of digital geographic data and services. See here for more information about ISO 19115. This document organises metadata information for all Atlas data items alphabetically by their source data collection.
