Project Open Data is the US government's Open Data Policy appendix (Managing Information as an Asset), including the DCAT-US metadata schema, maintained as a living open-source document. It has been superseded by Resources.data.gov and is being archived.

Use cases

• find the DCAT-US metadata schema specification
• learn about US federal open data policy requirements
• understand how agencies should manage data as an asset
• reference the original open data policy appendix
• trace where open data policy guidance moved to resources.data.gov

When to choose

• you need historical or archival reference to the original Project Open Data policy
• you are researching the evolution of US federal open data policy or DCAT-US schema

When to avoid

• you need current open data policy guidance, tools, or schema standards — use resources.data.gov instead
• you want actively maintained DCAT-US schema development
