Significance of Metadata
Metadata is important for many reasons
- Provides a standardized system to classify and label web content.
- Supports website maintenance and administration.
- Improves search relevancy.
- Provides an audit trail (information about who created the information and when it was created).
- Helps identify redundant, duplicative, and possibly obsolete content.
- Identifies similar content so you can establish logical links and other relationships.
- Allows information to be tracked and assembled government-wide.
