Transport Canada Data Administration – Metadata Framework and Standards

The Metadata Framework and Standards deals with Data and Process Modeling, which is an integral part of the Information Management Life Cycle. One of the biggest issues that organizations are facing today is to manage enterprise data. Enterprise data cannot be efficiently managed without effective data and metadata standards.  The Transport Canada Data Administration Metadata Framework and Standards was created to ensure that applications are developed following standards that are consistent throughout Transport Canada. Data Modeling forms the basis for all application development activities. Consulation with clients is underway.
