| [[rdms:metadata:start|Metadata]] is data about the data. In other words, metadata provides information about your data. This can, for example for research data, be information about how, when, and by whom the data was acquired, as well as important experimental details, but also publication information if applicable. Metadata greatly increases the findability of data compared to alternative storage solutions within the university, such as X:/ and Y:/ drives, as the RDMS provides a [[rdms:webapp:search|search]] engine that can query for these metadata. Therefore, if a user wants to reuse data stored on the RDMS, including both own data or from team members when permissions are correct, metadata information can greatly simplify the process of both finding the desired data and providing important experimental details. | [[rdms:metadata:start|Metadata]] can be summarized as 'data about the data'.

Metadata greatly increases the findability of data compared to alternative storage solutions within the university, such as X: and Y: drives, as the RDMS provides a powerful [[rdms:webapp:search|search]] that can also query for these metadata. Therefore, if a user wants to reuse data stored on the RDMS, including both own data or from team members if permissions are correct, metadata information can greatly simplify the process of both finding the desired data and providing important experimental details. |
