Metadata and Tabular Data Files
Metadata and tabular data (e.g. culture data) generated by C-CoMP will ultimately be stored in at least two separate places:
- 1.Archived on a computer and/or storage server in lab of origin
- 2.C-CoMP Google Drive (temporary storage)
- 3.
This storage scheme ensures that 1) there are multiple back-ups of the metadata and tabular data in different physical and cloud-based locations, 2) all C-CoMP members have access to facilitate direct and efficient collaboration, and 3) metadata and tabular data are publicly accessible on BCO-DMO and linked to domain repositories.
Instructions for submitting metadata and tabular data are shared below. Please submit metadata in the following order to avoid lags in data sharing.
We can temporarily store metadata and tabular data in the C-CoMP Google Drive to facilitate data sharing within the Center. This data will be archived once the metadata and tabular data has been deposited at BCO-DMO.
- 1.C-CoMP projects will be registered with BCO-DMO as part of the C-CoMP Program using the online submission tool. The Digital Coordinator can register projects on your behalf, but will ask you for additional information. At BCO-DMO, projects oversee a collection of one or more datasets.
- 1.
- 2.Once your project is registered, individual datasets can be submitted and filed underneath the project.
- 1.At BCO-DMO, datasets are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0. For more guidance, please read the BCO-DMO Terms of Use.
