摘要
The need for good quality metadata records becomes a necessity given the large quantities of digital content that is available through digital repositories and the increasing number of web services that use this content. The context in which metadata are generated and used affects the problem in question and therefore a flexible metadata quality evaluation model that can be easily and widely used has yet to be presented. This paper proposes a robust multidimensional metadata quality evaluation model that measures metadata quality based on five metrics and by taking into account contextual parameters concerning metadata generation and use. An implementation of this metadata quality evaluation model is presented and tested against a large number of real metadata records from the humanities domain and for different applications.
