IN040:
Publishing Data and Data Citations: Meeting Disparate Needs of Researchers,
Repositories and Publishers
Submit an Abstract to this Session
*Session ID#: *8511
Session Description:
Recent national and international policies on open data and research
results and the increase of similar policies from research funders and
publishers have motivated the Earth Science community to enable data
publishing through unique identifiers. In response, data repositories are
minting unique identifiers such as a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) as
part of their preservation services to enable data citations. However,
publishers are keenly focused on uniquely identifying the data used to
create the tables and figures within the publication, not necessarily the
entire data record in its original form. These divergent needs lead to the
question, “What does it mean to publish data?”. This session solicits
presentations from Academia, Funders, Data Repositories and Data Publishing
organizations to understand their perspectives on the ambiguous definition
of “data publishing” and how they are meeting this new requirement for
unique identifiers and data citations.
