Adatairól

Adatairól is a term used in data management, particularly in Hungarian contexts, to refer to the documentation and discussion about a dataset. It encompasses information about the data’s origin, context, structure, and intended or permitted use. The goal is to promote transparency, reproducibility, and responsible data use.

Adatairól typically includes several elements. These include the source and method of collection, the scope and content of the data, and the data schema or format. It covers data quality measures and known limitations, as well as metadata such as a data dictionary, lineage, and version history. Privacy considerations, compliance with regulations, and any access restrictions or governance rules are also part of adatairól. Finally, responsibilities for maintenance and stewardship and notes on data ownership are commonly documented.

In practice, organizations maintain adatairól through data catalogs, governance frameworks, and dataset portals. Analysts and researchers consult adatairól to understand the data before analysis, to ensure results are reproducible, and to assess whether a dataset is suitable for a given task. Data stewards and data governance bodies typically oversee its creation, updates, and accuracy.

Adatairól is closely related to broader concepts such as metadata, data provenance, data lineage, and data governance. It supports transparency, quality assessment, and compliance, while presenting challenges including keeping documentation up to date, handling incomplete metadata, and balancing openness with privacy.
