Metadata References

The Dataverse Project is committed to using standard-compliant metadata to ensure that a Dataverse installation’s metadata can be mapped easily to standard metadata schemas and be exported into JSON format (XML for tabular file metadata) for preservation and interoperability.

Supported Metadata

Detailed below are what metadata schemas we support for Citation and Domain Specific Metadata in the Dataverse Project:

Experimental Metadata

Unlike supported metadata, experimental metadata is not enabled by default in a new Dataverse installation. Feedback via any channel is welcome!

Please note: these custom metadata schemas are not included in the Solr schema for indexing by default, you will need to add them as necessary for your custom metadata blocks. See “Update the Solr Schema” in Metadata Customization.
