Deposition Type for Tables on Zenodo

gsautter commented 2 years ago

What deposition type should be used for tables on Zenodo? We have recently started exposing tables as separate objects, so far using HTTP URIs for them. While creating respective depositions in Zenodo is a good bit downstream (we only now have the means to even gather an overview of what is there and begin to think about QC, the latter being a prerequisite for creating immutable depositions), we can well include the HTTP URIs in the metadata of other depositions.

More specifically, this means adding "hasPart" links to the depositions of the source articles of the tables, and "cites" links to treatments that contain table citations ... for figures, we use type "Image/Figure", but which type should we use for tables? Of the types available at this point, "Dataset" seems to be the closest match, but would a table be an appropriate application of that type? Please let me know what you think (examples to follow).

+1 For upload type "dataset" It seems quite plausible and appropriate.

Here an example of an article deposition and a treatment deposition:

article containing tables: https://zenodo.org/record/3779424
treatment citing table: https://zenodo.org/record/3795196

Please let me know what you thing regarding labeling tables "datasets" in Zenodo.
