Webinar Details

The world is awash in data. So how can you find and know that the data you have is the data you need? Metadata. It's the data about data, and it plays a critical role in the management and automated processing of spatial datasets.

Traditionally, metadata is managed in two ways: (1) it’s not being managed at all, or (2) by filling out tedious forms or hand editing XML documents. Either way, metadata is usually accompanied by groans of frustration.

But what if we told you it didn’t have to be that way?

Metadata management done right ensures your organization is using the right data for the right purpose.

In this webinar, learn how you can manage metadata directly in your workflows. With FME, you can automate metadata updates to improve data quality and organize datasets. Plus, you’ll never have to fill out another boring form.

Stop spending time searching for incorrect data. By automatically managing metadata, you can enjoy quality data the moment you require it.
