General Results

• From review of GeoSpatial OneStop, it is clear that several metadata repositories hold the records for the same datasets
• It is not wrong to have multiple partially redundant repositories
• Must have a way to resolve inconsistencies

Possibly authorize one of the sites as "official" record
