- Descriptive data about something.
In Skylight, metadata can be used by the author in several ways, seeUses_of_Metadata
Silhouette (aka Flashlight Online 1.0) implemented metadata in a simpler fashion, passing categorical variables on the URL to record metadata that would distinquish a respondent as a member of a group (known now as a respondent pool). These categorical variables were passed to the report, as if entered by respondents as answers to questions. In Skylight (aka Flashlight Online 2.0) respondent pool metadata performs a similar function.
