Curation is the process of creating/editing content in the caDSR. It involves characterizing the data that one intends to collect or has collected as an ISO/IEC 11179 data element. Harmonization is a consensus process by which there is agreement by interested parties on how common data will be represented. After there is agreement, common data elements (or parts) may be curated in the registry and made available for reuse.
