The first draft of the readme is provided as a pdf in a pre-release of the github.com/terraref/data-publication repository. Closing this PR and will re-open a new PR when I get a draft of the data paper.
Hey David, I wanted to have a look at this today but can't find the PDF. Is it ready for review?
@jeanetteclark Thanks! I sent a link in Slack last week. Also attached to this pre-release https://github.com/terraref/data-publication/releases/tag/v0.1. Let me know if you have any questions!
Not sure if you are ready for full copy editing yet, but this looks really good. It certainly goes above and beyond a lot of the data documentation that I see. There are a few places with sentence fragments or slightly wonky formatting, but it looks like it is getting pretty close.
Moved dryad content to separate repository terraref/data-publication
This is looking good - nice integration of accessing the betydb to programmatically fill in the metadata fields.
As I mentioned in slack, I'm not so sure about including the genotypes individually. It might be a little outside the normal usage of the taxonomic field, but including them in the EML document would make them searchable on certain platforms.
Since this is for a data paper, it might be nice to document the data records as
dataTable
s in the dataset. Within thephysical
element there is adistribution
element that where you can put pointers to the individual files at whatever location they live.As a broader question -the degree to which Dryad can support EML documents? There is already much more information in here than what the DataCite schema supports (which I think is what Dryad uses)
