Microdata Cataloging Tool (NADA)
NADA is a web-based cataloging system that serves as a portal for researchers to browse, search, compare, apply for access, and download relevant census or survey information. It was originally developed to support the establishment of national survey data archives. The application is used by a diverse and growing number of national, regional, and international organizations. NADA, as with other IHSN tools, uses the Data Documentation Initiative (DDI), XML-based international metadata standard.
System Requirements
NADA requires a server running PHP 5.2 or later with a MySQL database.
Features
Instantly publish DDI documents to the web | Search surveys for rich metadata |
Rich web interface to manage your DDI based codebooks | Distribute external resources and microdata with ease |
