This study investigates the challenges associated with managing high-dimensional geospatial data across various fields such as economics, biostatistics, epidemiology, environmental health, and sciences. We present the current state of geospatial data in Dataverse and introduce novel tools and advancements for enhancing data management and utilization. A significant focus is on evaluating the effectiveness of automatic metadata extraction using GPT-4 for geospatial datasets in the Harvard Dataverse repository.
The repository contains data and code for the landscape analysis of geospatial data in Dataverse and the analysis with GPT-4. Open source tools presented in the paper are part of the Dataverse and EasyDataverse repositories.
