ADP - SOCIAL SCIENCE DATA ARCHIVES

This webinar will introduce you to the new qualitative data browsing system of the UK Data Service, based on robust XML metadata.



The Digital Futures project, sponsored by the ESRC has enabled us to create a system that utilises the XML schema QuDEx, developed with the explicit purpose of complementing the Data Documentation Initiative (DDI) for social science study and survey-based description.



We will introduce our implementation of QuDEX, and show - very practically - what metadata we use to describe, search and view qualitative files and their relationship to each other within a collection.
