MetaMetrics is an interactive data dashboard that generates reports on the quality of metadata in scientific journals, based on three characteristics identified by previous research: sufficiency, precision and consistency. For its development, 26,453 records harvested from the Open Journal System (OJS) of 716 journals belonging to institutions of the Network of Macrouniversities of Latin America and the Caribbean (Red de Macrouniversidades de América Latina y el Caribe) were used. The data was evaluated using regular expressions in Google Sheets following the character pattern defined by the orthographic, syntactic and semantic rules of the OpenAIRE Guidelines for Literature Repositories v3. Data visualization applied to the metadata domain facilitates the identification of errors in the bibliographic description that hinder the process of indexing journals in international indexes.
