In-house

Summary of in-house software has been designed and developed by CLOSER. All of our software is made open-source allowing other organisations to extend and contribute.

Archivist

PRODUCTION

Archivist is a multipurpose metadata management tool through a web interface. Using DDI-3.2, Archivist is capable of documenting data collection instruments and mapping datasets variables to their source questions. A controlled vocabulary can be applied to both questions and variables. Archivist has a collection of administrative tools to aid the organisation and curation of DDI metadata.
