DSSC Description

A cornerstone of any data space is the precise and comprehensive description of offerings. These offering descriptions are created using machine-readable metadata, making them accessible to both humans and software systems, thus facilitating seamless interaction and automation. They encompass metadata for various elements, including data products, services, data licenses, usage terms, and additional details such as commercial terms and pricing, all systematically organised within a catalogue. High-quality metadata plays a critical role in ensuring the discoverability, interoperability, and usability of data products and services, forming the foundation for an efficient data sharing ecosystem.
