Reproduce data from raw data #52

Open joerg-halo opened 3 years ago

joerg-halo commented 3 years ago

As scientific user I have doubts about a dataset. I want to recalculate the data from the raw data in order to assess if the dataset is trustworthy. Therefore, the access to the raw data and to a documentation of the data retrieval is desired. I might be the successor of the fomer data provider who left the institute. Or, I might be an external scientific user who runs the same/similar instrument on another platform.

If it is given, that large datasets can be uploaded (covered by #51), this use case does not need a "big" label, right?

This use case might require #20, because if I want to recalculate the contents of one dataset, I need the inputs which have been used for the dataset in doubt. Getting exactly the same input can only be ensured, if there is a way of identifying those inputs unchanged. This might also require that the dataset in doubt has to contain the persistent identifiers of its source datasets as parts of its metadata.
