2.2.4: Posting Process

Format data appropriately, populate metadata and submit the dataset and metadata for publication on Data.gov.

Other Information:

POSTING PROCESS A final step for any dataset is the technical process for formatting data appropriately, populating metadata and submitting the dataset and metadata for actual publication on Data.gov. Similar to the review process, we expect data stewards themselves – those who have the most direct knowledge of the material – will be key participants in this stage. Technical support and guidance will be provided by DoD CIO.

Stakeholder(s):

• Data Stewards: Responsible for ensuring: • Data is decomposed into Data.gov compatible formats • Metadata is refined and fully exposed • Data dictionaries are easily understandable • All data meets Department Information Quality Standards • Currency of all datasets is maintained • Data is hosted


• DoD CIO: Support the Data Stewards by: • Providing training and oversight of Departmental data stewards (owners) • Developing and maintaining internal Department of Defense data submission process
