Abstract	Metamodels are a key concept in Model-Driven Engineering. Any artifact in a modeling ecosystem has to be defined in accordance to a metamodel prescribing its main qualities. Hence, understanding common characteristics of metamodels, how they evolve over time, and what is the impact of metamodel changes throughout the modeling ecosystem is of great relevance. Similarly to software, metrics can be used to obtain objective, transparent, and reproducible measurements on metamodels too. In this paper, we present an approach to understand structural characteristics of metamodels. A number of metrics are used to quantify and measure metamodels and cross-link different aspects in order to provide additional information about how metamodel characteristics are related. The approach is applied on repositories consisting of more than 450 metamodels. .
