Automatic validation of the open data licence before data publish #1560

Closed jh-RLI closed 8 months ago

jh-RLI commented 8 months ago

Description of the issue

We want to introduce a community-driven open peer review. It takes time to build the community and the knowledge for people to review data and metadata. For example, a high level of data literacy is needed to check whether an open data licence can be granted for a particular dataset.

We need to require some simple form of validation of the licence before the user can publish data on the OEP. We dont want to hinder the user to publish data. Uploading to modeldraft will continue to be possible without restrictions.

Ideas of solution

To minimise the potential of uploading non-open data to the OEP, we want to introduce an automatic check of the license for open data. The license is part of the metadata.

It can be checked 1. whether a license is available at all 2. whether the licence name is an open licence 3. whether the licence name is unknown 4. whether the license is not an open license
