Internet researchers and metadata enthusiasts,

In response to feedback and guidance from contributors and users, we continue to refine the Internet Measurement Data Catalog (DatCat). To encourage additional contributions, we have streamlined the DatCat data model and minimized the number of required metadata fields. Specifically, we eliminated the Data and Package objects and merged their most important information into relevant Collections. We also made dozens of other little improvements all over the code base.

We invite folks to browse the catalog, create an account, and contribute some metadata to the catalog to help document the existence and availability of Internet measurement data.

Cheers.
