Abstract
A centralised metadata store is fundamental for the efficient management and operation of GNSS networks. The metadata store should be accessible, reliable, accurate, and form a single-point-of-truth containing metadata for hundreds of stations. This paper presents an outline of Geoscience Australia's Oracle based centralised metadata management system for maintaining station metadata for GNSS networks operating at state-wide, to national and regional levels. The benefits of the system in supporting several key GNSS operations such as monitoring data quality, generating IGS formatted station log files, validating RINEX header files and generating summary files in customary formats is demonstrated. This paper also discusses the system architecture for maintaining station metadata through manual data entry by Geoscience Australia operators and authorised state users responsible for designated stations or networks. Processes for automatic metadata maintenance for core IGS stations used in routine data analysis are also summarised.
