+## OpenData Bridge ##
+
+The OpenData Bridge is a small stand-alone Java application which harvests metadata sets from OpenData catalogues (Ckan based) and OGC CSW catalogues, transforms them into ArcGIS Online items (http://bit.ly/1457Ve9) and publishes these items into ArcGIS Online. The current version of the OpenData Bridge tool supports the WMS, KML and CSV item type. 
+The tool could be used for a single process (running as a batch script directly by the user)
