NADA survey cataloguing software
![](https://ihsn.org/sites/default/files/styles/project-photo/public/MyPicture36.gif?itok=P6pfpcEQ)
Users must be properly informed about the existence and characteristics of available survey data. To promote the use of microdata, detailed metadata must be made available in the form of a searchable on-line catalogue. To support this effort, IHSN promotes the use of the DDI metadata standard, and is developing or sponsoring the development of DDI-compliant tools and guidelines, including our specialized DDI metadata editor and the National Data Archive (NADA), a freely accessible, open-source cataloguing application.
