Implement Standards

This page presents some of the metadata products and services supported by the EDR and describes how to use some of the features of the EDR to conduct metadata management activities. If you are a first time user of the EDR, you will want to read the Introduction to learn more about the EDR registries and their content. The Implement Standards page allows program managers, systems managers, and systems developers who are responsible for implementing data standards in their application systems to ensure consistently defined and formatted data elements and sets of data values to efficiently share environmental information.

Harmonize Data


Develop Systems

The EDR supports the harmonization process by providing a data mapping capability. The Harmonize Data page describes the process of searching for related data elements in multiple information systems and selecting data elements to compare. This information may be used to intergrate data systems or improve the consistency of data meaning and format across related systems. The Develop Systems page allows computer programmers or systems analysts interested in the representation, format, definition, and valid values of a standard to develop or reengineer application systems.
