frictionlessdata / datapackage

Data Package is a standard consisting of a set of simple yet extensible specifications to describe datasets, data files and tabular data. It is a data definition language (DDL) and data API that facilitates findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability (FAIR) of data.

Consider adding funding information #923

Open roll opened 2 months ago

Overview

Sometimes, it might be useful if a Data Package provides funding information. One of them is when a Data Package is used as a unified Data API and needs to map other metadata system information (e.g. DataCite/Zenodo/etc).

There is already well-defined funding dictionaries to reuse e.g. https://datacite-metadata-schema.readthedocs.io/en/4.5/properties/fundingreference/

Rather than mentioning funding specifically, I would add a section where we recommend adopting DataCite (or Dublin Core) properties if one want to extend Data Package with more properties.

For example, in Camtrap DP, we adopted DataCite's relatedIdentifiers as is: https://camtrap-dp.tdwg.org/metadata/#relatedIdentifiers
