[EXTERNAL ID] Can RRIDs please be added to map to ROR? #253

Open bandrow opened 4 months ago

bandrow commented 4 months ago

  1. Name of External ID system: [Provide the name of the external identifier system] RRID

  2. Organization maintaining the ID system: [Provide the name of the organization responsible for the ID system] rrids.org

  3. Brief description: [Provide a short description of the ID system and its purpose] RRIDs mark research resources, including core facilities and shared instruments, but they are aggregated under organizations that have been mapped to ROR. See external mappings in ror documentation.

  4. Is the data associated with the external ID openly accessible via a web interface, API or data file that is not behind a paywall?

    • [X ] Yes
    • [ ] No

  5. Provide the URL where the data can be accessed. Include examples of individual record access, if available: [Insert URL here] Amanda French has been given an output file with 903 mappings and the sql statement that generated this. She will add it to a blog on ror.org. The RRID API can be queried via these instructions (however there is no direct search for RORs there so I would use the csv file until they can be queried) https://docs.scicrunch.io/elasticsearch-metadata-services/resource-information-network-rin-services

  6. Describe the available data formats (e.g., JSON, CSV, XML): [Describe the format] csv for Amanda's file, json for the API

  7. What is the license for the data associated with the external ID? Provide a link to the license, where available. [Provide license information] CC-By

  8. Is the license compatible with open use and redistribution?

    • [ X] Yes
    • [ ] No
    • [ ] Uncertain (please explain)

  9. How frequently is the data updated? [Describe update frequency] RRIDs are added daily, but the mappings are not frequently updated

  10. Is versioning information available for the data?

    • [ X] Yes - there is a last update that can be used for this it is part of the API
    • [ ] No

  11. Is there an existing mapping between this ID system and ROR?

    • [X ] Yes initial mapping has been given to Amanda
    • [ ] No
    • [ ] Partial

  12. If yes or partial, provide details or link to the mapping: [Provide information on existing mapping] dbvis-20240716-13546834768936992247.xlsx This is a manual mapping (we started with an automated script, then fixed the entries manually)

  13. Describe the adoption of this ID system in its relevant community or domain, including any major research infrastructure systems that integrate these identifiers: [Provide details on adoption] RRIDs have been adopted by ~1000 journals, and various checklists (ARRIVE, MDAR etc). Resources usually reside in or are cared for by some ROR entity, so the relationship is some RRIDs has parent some ROR - to make this feasible we created RRIDs largely before ROR so that we could say that.

  14. Who would benefit from including this external identifier? [Explain the benefits] for example core facilities which reside in some university

  15. Provide any additional information or context that supports this request: [Add any other relevant information] trying to align ROR and RRIDs for core facilities and instruments

@amandafrench Can you add the mapping file here for review?
