Data Description and Metadata – What it takes to produce a good one?
Finding relevant research data is tremendously easier if the data are described in detail using controlled vocabularies and discipline-specific metadata. But this is still not enough. Data descriptions should be descriptions of data, scope, collection methods and use, not published research outputs and results. This skill is important for anyone describing research data in repository […]
Persistent Identification of Instruments
Instruments play an essential role in creating research data but they are often only identified in the scientific literature using free text. Through the use of globally unique, persistent identifiers (PIDs), it is now common practice to establish traceable links between research assets. This webinar introduces the Outputs of the RDA Persistent Identification of Instruments […]
