MDQC stands for Metadata Quality Control, and it allows users to do just that in an effective and automated manner. MDQC is a **free and open source** application that allows users to create rules on embedded metadata, scan a set of files, and report on the conformance of each file against the user-defined rules.

MDQC greatly minimizes the time needed to QC large batches of files.
