What is a CSW

A Catalogue Service for the Web, is a standard in where one can search for datasets in an online Catalogue. To search for data, the user enters a keyword to search on. All the datasets that contain the keyword in their metadata, will pop up. A dataset can then be downloaded in different (geo) data formats. The CSW standard is defined by the OGC, the Open Geospatial Consortium.
