The benefits of using a systematic way of assigning and structuring metadata include: Relevance: providing information that search engines can use to find relevant documents in large collections, such as Web sites or document databases, where text search alone brings up many irrelevant documents or lists of documents too long for users to look at. 1, record 1, English, - assigning%20metadata

Une méthodologie systématisée d'attribution et de structuration des métadonnées procure différents avantages : Pertinence : La présence d'informations reconnues par les moteurs de recherche peut servir à repérer les documents pertinents dans des corpus d'envergure, comme les sites Web et les bases de données, où la recherche textuelle générerait des listes de résultats trop volumineuses contenant de nombreux documents sans rapport avec la recherche. 1, record 1, French, - attribution%20des%20m%C3%A9tadonn%C3%A9es
