What is the definition of metadata?

Odpověď

Hello, here is a definition of the metadata from Dublin Core Metadata Initiative Glossary:
In general, "data about data;" functionally, "structured data about data." Information about an information resource. In the case of Dublin Core, information that expresses the intellectual content, intellectual property and/or instantiation characteristics of an information resource.
(http://www.dublincore.org/documents/2001/04/12/usageguide/glossary.shtml#M)

You can also use the text about metadata:

Several definitions of the metadata you find on Google:

The most of definitions agree on the general definition of metadata as "data about data".
