Résumé

Cultural landscapes are complex, diverse heritage resources that are necessarily localized. This literature review explores what metadata practices are most useful to users of cultural landscapes in Canada, recognizing that as a nation it represents many diverse geographies, landscapes and cultures. During the review, several themes emerged, identifying qualities that metadata should be designed to support to enhance access to cultural landscapes. The themes emphasize localization, flexibility, interoperability, and the ability to collaborate with users in describing and making these resources more broadly accessible.
