qn: raw data archive integration #28

Quick question that came up in the LivingNorway.no workshop – in terms of database integration: as far as I can tell, the only link to the original data in COMADRE/COMPADRE is the citation (typically to a paper). Is there any other way to see if the original data (i.e. not the processed matrices, but the data underlying them) is also archived somewhere?

Hi Liz, yes, we have developed materials (https://github.com/jonesor/compadreDB/blob/master/Workshop/ObtainingReferences.pdf) to allow users to obtain a full reference list of the demographic information contained in COMPADRE/COMADRE that they wish to use. In the original pubs, we made a call for users of these databases to cite the original works
