Informatica Metadata contains all the information about the source tables, target tables, the transformations, so that it will be useful and easy to perform transformations during the ETL process.  
 
The Informatica Metadata is stored in Informatica repository

Informatica Metadate is nothing but the source definition, target definition and the transformations that have been built. They are stored in the respository server and is managed by Repository manager of the informatica client tool.

Metadata is simply documentation for a digital geospatial dataset. It is a text document that describes the who, what, when, where, why and how questions about the data, so that a potential data user can decide whether or not the data is appropriate for his/her use."
