- With regard to reports, metadata is data about report content. The ANSI/NISO Scientific and Technical Reports standard defines three categories of the metadata associated with technical reports.
- Descriptive metadata is the data that helps the user find a report and distinguish it from other similar ones. The descriptive data can be further divided in discovery and historical metadata. Report's title, creator, publisher, date of creation, and language are examples of the discovery metadata. The historical metadata provides historical data on any operations with the content data such as its creation, storage, modification, verification, and/or validation.
- Structural metadata is the data that explains the relationship between parts of multipart objects and enhance internal navigation. Report's table of contents, list of figures and tables, glossary, and document index are examples of the structural metadata.
- Administrative metadata is the data that supports maintaining and archiving reports and ensure their long-term availability. The administrative data can be further divided in legal and technical metadata.
Such metadata include type and version of software used in preparing the report and rights-management requirements.
