Persistent Identifiers for Projects Community Dialogue
DataCite, in partnership with Metadata Game Changers, is excited to announce two community dialogue sessions (see also here) designed to engage the broader Life Sciences and Astronomy communities in co-developing metadata enhancements supporting the development and use of persistent identifiers (PIDs) for instruments and projects. We would like to invite both metadata creators and users to join us and take an active role in advancing infrastructure solutions to identify, describe, discover, and track the impact of instruments and projects across domain communities.
The Persistent Identifiers for Projects Community Dialogue will explore a variety of community developed project metadata schemas including RAiD, Local Contexts, Citizen Science, and DataCite.
Topics will include:
- Contributors and creators
- Spatial & temporal coverage
- Rights, access & traditional knowledge
- Funder and grant metadata
- Connections to project outputs
These dialogues represent the first phase of a larger project recently launched by DataCite. Generously funded by the Richard Lounsbery Foundation, this project aims to address present challenges in data accessibility, transparency, and reproducibility across the Life Science and Astronomy communities by fostering collaboration and developing transformative solutions. Insights, feedback, and proposed metadata enhancements gathered during these dialogues will directly inform subsequent prototype developments designed by DataCite.
Workshop Facilitators:
- Erin Robinson (Metadata Game Changers)
- Ted Habermann (Metadata Game Changers)
- Jamaica Jones (University of Pittsburgh)
- Stephany RunningHawk Johnson (Local Contexts)
- Jane Anderson (New York University & Local Contexts)
- Greg Newman (CitSci & Colorado State University)
- Shawn Ross (Australian Research Data Commons)
Workshop slides will be shared afterwards through the DataCite Zenodo Community.
