metafor
The main objective of metafor is:
to develop a ''Common Information Model (CIM)" to describe climate data an the models that produce it in a standard way, and to ensure the wide adoption of the CIM. Metafor will address the fragmentation and gaps in availability of metadata (data describing data) as well as the duplication of information collection and problems of identifying, access and using climate data that are currently found in existing repositories.
