Data ContinuumAchievements & Perspectives

18th March 2013 Jean-François Perrin - Institut Laue Langevin - CRISP 2nd Annual Meeting 1

Data Continuum

Aim for better sustainable links, traceability an transparency for the whole chain of

experimental science.


Data Continuum


• Data archiving• Proper annotation (Exp context, sample description, …)• Cataloguing• Analysed / Derived data• Software archiving• Policies• Data persistent identification• Publications• Links with publication

– Publication -> Data– Data -> Publication

DoW

• T4 Identify the PI system which best fits the needs of the partners;

• T5 Elaborate a data publication process satisfying data policies of the participating RIs;

• T6 Implement the persistent Identifier technology;

• T7 Cooperate with the major publishers to ensure that publications, issued from data generated at the facilities, provide reference to the experimental data sets.


Persistent Identifiers Technologies

• Objectives :– Being able to identify permanently and

sustainably the Data Sets– Sealing the links between datasets and

publication • Which one, ARK, PURL(Z), HANDLE/DOI,

our own … ?


DOI

• DOI, Why ?– Technically (persistence, scope, scalability,

… ) fits our needs (MS7 - Laura Rueda)– DOI has a very good libraries/publisher

support and market penetration.– ISO standard– DOI is becoming The standard for PID– Worst case scenario -> handle system


Registration Agency• Datacite : amongst the 10 Ras, DataCite is

the only one that focus on scientific data. – DOI’s metadata are adapted for scientific

experimental data; – Provides APIs (Web Services) for automating the

generation of DOIs; and much more (export /OAI-PMH, metadata search engine, citation formatter, statistics …)

– Datacite is composed of major scientific Libraries;– Very active organisation - Agreements with

Publishers.


Contract• Have to deal with national representative

– ESRF & ILL with INIST (CNRS)• Annual fee in order to cover the Infrastructure

cost (1000€ for 10,000 DOIs)

• Difficulties– High level quality metadata (samples are

prepared by the users, difficult to asserts for the RIs)

– Mandatory metadata vs competition & non disclosure period


DOI Metadata

• DOI = 10.5291/ILL-DATA.6-05-579• Creator = Proposal team• URL of landing page• Title = Title of the experimental proposal• Publisher = Institut Laue - Langevin• Date = 3rd December 2010 • Data Format = ILL ascii / NXS• Data Citation = 1.Fontana, Aldo, Fabiani,

Landing page


Workflow

• ILL - current– Mint DOI right after the end of the first

experiment– Might change, if Authors list and title appears

to be too sensitive– Update the full set of Metadata after the end

of the non-disclosure period.


Current status

• CERN – DESY – ESRF – ILL agreed on DOI and DataCite.

• Implementation of DOIs

– ILL and DataCite are signing the contract– Deployment DOIs generation mechanism– Development of registration tools– Landing page public rollout


Perspective & Open discussion

• T5: Elaborate a data publication process satisfying data policies of the participating RIs;

Who got a Data Policy ?


Perspective & Open discussion

• T7: Publication -> Data– Who has contact with publishers (commercial

or Open Access) ?• T7: Data -> Publication

– Harvesting ourselves using OAI-PMH ?– Co-development with specialized company

(e.g. http://www.symplectic.co.uk/) ?

– Work with DataCite ?
