Canadian Urban Data Repository

The purpose of the Canadian Urban Data Repository (CUDR) is to provide a “home” for urban datasets. While primarily focused on datasets created by academe, it will also contain datasets created by NGOs, governments, citizens, and industry. Datasets stored in the repository will be open-access and will not contain personally identifiable information. The purpose of the Canadian Urban Data Catalogue (CUDC) is to enhance the awareness of urban datasets that exist across Canada by providing a catalogue of Canadian and Canadian-created urban datasets. It will catalogue datasets available in CUDR and external datasets available on other platforms and as web services. These external datasets may be open or closed. CUDC uses a rich metadata model that supports the documentation and search for datasets relevant to a user’s needs. Catalogue entry metadata may be exported and imported from/to CUDC.

加拿大城市数据存储库（CUDR）旨在为城市数据集提供一个‘归宿’。该库主要致力于收录学术界创建的数据集，同时亦将纳入非政府组织、政府、市民及产业界所创建的数据集。存储在库中的数据集将实行开放获取，且不包含任何可识别个人身份的信息。加拿大城市数据目录（CUDC）的宗旨在于通过提供加拿大及加拿大制作的都市数据集的目录，提升加拿大境内现有都市数据集的知名度。它将收录加拿大城市数据存储库（CUDR）中可用的数据集，以及其他平台和作为网络服务提供的外部数据集。这些外部数据集可能为开放或封闭性质。CUDC采用丰富的元数据模型，以支持符合用户需求的相关数据集的文档编制和搜索。目录条目元数据可从CUDC导出和导入。
