ESIP summer meeting
landscape: http://commons.esipfed.org/node/9139

Agenda

Abstract and uploaded talks: http://commons.esipfed.org/node/9139

Speakers, from 3 points of view (<10 min each):

  1. Kerstin Lehnert - Repository Registries (COPDESS-Re3Data)
  2. Matt Jones - Repositories aggregators (Data ONE)
  3. Margaret O'Brien - Contributors (liaison, perspective from Researchers)
Also to discuss, Shelley Stall's visualization at ...link...

For each talk and following, we are discussing the following questions.

Attending

Notes

Outcomes of today's discussions

Recommendations for registries

  • send out reminder to update the registry record regularly
  • promote the business card standard
  • work to standardize the APIs that journals use to communicate with repositories
  • consider opening up correction process to anybody with confirmation by recordholder
  • note that some metadata about a repository may live in different registries (e.g. COPDESS doesn't have info about technical services but Council for Data Federation might and so does DataONE -- so registries should ensure linkage across the relevant records
  • work with Shelley to improve the currency of the data in re3data
  • make sure that the fields we would need for the services

Recommendations for repositories

  • take an active role in bringing COPDESS messages to your institution
  • create a standards compliant business card
  • use re3data as the authoritative source
  • validate your record in COPDESS (where you can own your record)
  • adopt an existing API rather than developing one of your own
  • use loose coupling so submission or authentication systems or other subsystems could be used across groups
  • start with small steps to participate in an aggregated network, incrementally improve
  • leverage added value from aggregators for things like data citation

Recommendations for liaisons

  • develop a set of questions to help narrow the list of options based on Margaret's questions
  • hope for consolidation to streamline the options in the longer term
  • help registries to track the right kind of info

Next steps for landscape analysis

  • will need to get metadata from re3data & COPDESS and CDF (sounds like they are just starting to develop their registry which may have technical info)
  • List the predominant standards eg APIs, ORCID, etc.
  • help to comment on Erin's and Shelley's flower diagram to make it better for understanding roles and their touchpoints
  • look for opportunities to streamline the landscape and fulfill the needs of different perspectives
  • summarize surveys about measuring these outcomes and the gaps (work with the ROI group
  • Shelley's graphic: could use libraries and business venn bubbles.
  • consider the collective approach -- sustain the network of landscape of repositories

Common technical vision

  • concern that lots of funding goes to developing bells and whistles (map viewers, authentication systems) and not to new added value
  • try to minimize overlaps
  • ensure that investment really increases the amount of data available and the ability to access it no matter what repository
  • streamline the following for economy of scale:
    • data quality
    • authentication
    • standards for metadata exchange & web services
    • author identifiers
    • helpdesk support (see ScienceGateways.org set up to help set up computational gateways and web-based resource <--nancy wilkins-deer)
    • data preservation (connect with the data stewardship group)
    • citation
    • compliance mechanisms
    • search interfaces
    • ROI framework
    • business models
    • A common place to communicate (this cluster) including stories of how people are using data
