Abstract
MetRe is a prototype interface and service designed to support
the metadata revision process. Improving consistency
of metadata records within an environment is a common
repository management task, due to potential for user error
when submitting, as well as of other sources of error, such as
systematic error resulting from the chosen deposit process.
Evidence to support the metadata correction process may
be gathered by automated metadata extraction tools, evidence
from within the repository, or by comparison with best
practice across the repository landscape. MetRe (Metadata
Revision) is a prototype demonstrator that is able to identify several characteristic classes of error, twinned with an interface able to highlight several types of individual and systematic error, including a notion of local (intra-repository) and general (inter-repository) best practice.}
