COW seeks to facilitate the collection, dissemination, and use of accurate and reliable quantitative data in international relations. Key principles of the project include a commitment to standard scientific principles of replication, data reliability, documentation, review, and the transparency of data collection procedures. More specifically, we are committed to the free public release of data sets to the research community, to release data in a timely manner after data collection is completed, to provide version numbers for data set and replication tracking, to provide appropriate dataset documentation, and to attempt to update, document, and distribute follow-on versions of datasets where possible. We intend to use our website as the center of our data distribution efforts, to serve as central site for collection of possible error information and questions, to provide a forum for interaction with users of Correlates of War data, and as a way for the international relations community to contribute to the continuing development of the project.

The purpose of the Canadian Urban Data Repository (CUDR) is to provide a “home” for urban datasets. While primarily focused on datasets created by academe, it will also contain datasets created by NGOs, governments, citizens, and industry. Datasets stored in the repository will be open-access and will not contain personally identifiable information. The purpose of the Canadian Urban Data Catalogue (CUDC) is to enhance the awareness of urban datasets that exist across Canada by providing a catalogue of Canadian and Canadian-created urban datasets. It will catalogue datasets available in CUDR and external datasets available on other platforms and as web services. These external datasets may be open or closed. CUDC uses a rich metadata model that supports the documentation and search for datasets relevant to a user’s needs. Catalogue entry metadata may be exported and imported from/to CUDC.
