Creating a Project

Before the user can perform any action on the Projects & Datasets page, they need access to an existing Project. Projects are listed in the left-hand navigation menu. The user may see only those Projects that relate to them. Click a Project to view a summary list of the Datasets it contains.

To create a new Project, see How to create a Project.

Creating a Dataset

Projects require data in the form of a Dataset. Existing Datasets are listed in the selected Project. Each Dataset has an Edit button that allows users to adjust the information in preparation for publishing the Dataset to the Local Data Catalogue.

To create a Dataset, see How to create a Dataset.
