Notes

RE3data: a repository of repositories, for all research. updates were very difficult, and needed to be coordinated. CDF (earthcube) suggested that repos own their data and keep it locally, and allow entities such as re3data to harvest and aggregate as needed.

advantages:

  • repo owns its own data
  • expose your data thru webservices (other engines can search it too, eg google, bing).

progress

  • 10 pilot sites have done the work.
  • need to finalize metadata
  • metadata recommendations
