Zenodo (https://zenodo.org/) is a general-purpose free and open-access repository operated by the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and funded by the European Union. It allows researchers in any subject area to deposit data sets, research software, reports, and any other research related digital artifacts. The Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services is using Zenodo to share its products and to ensure:
open access to IPBES products
issuance of digital object identifiers (DOI) to enable citation of IPBES products.
availability of IPBES products in search functionality of CrossRef, DataCite, PubMed, RefBank, GNUB, Mendeley and Zotero.
Uploads (supporting material) must be material that have been prepared for Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), and may include dialogue reports, reports and proceedings of workshops commissioned or supported by IPBES, software or databases that facilitate the preparation or use of IPBES reports, policy-relevant tools and methodologies that facilitate the preparation or use of IPBES reports; Guidance materials that assist in the preparation of comprehensive and scientifically sound IPBES reports. Supporting materials are not accepted, approved or adopted by the IPBES Plenary.
Collection URL: links directly to your community collection. https://zenodo.org/communities/ipbes/β
Upload URL: address will automatically ensure people who use it will have their record added to your community collection https://zenodo.org/deposit/new?c=ipbesβ
Harvesting URL: links to a OAI-PMH feed, which can be used by other digital repositories to harvest this community https://zenodo.org/oai2d?verb=ListRecords&set=user-ipbes&metadataPrefix=oai_dcβ
A persistent Digital Object identifier (DOI) is assigned for each upload to make it citable and trackable and findable. The assignment of the DOI is instantaneous when the expert is submitting the file. It is possible to reserve DOI.
Metadata of each record is sent to DataCite servers during DOI registration and indexed there.
Data and metadata will be retained for the lifetime of the repository. This is currently the lifetime of the host laboratory CERN, which currently has an experimental programme defined for the next 20 years.
Large file sizes of up to 50 GB
Versioning of data
Integration with GitHub
All data and metadata uploaded is traceable to a registered Zenodo user.
Metadata means βdata about dataβ. Metadata provide the context and information required to interpret and understand the data.
Structural metadata: e.g. the file and directory structure, record trail of steps taken during collection and analysis, information about data formats. The related sections in Zenodo are Files, Communities and Upload type
Descriptive metadata: the context and information about the data, e.g. the name of dataset, research discipline, persistent identifier, the time and place of collection and publishing of the dataset, authorship and ownership, content description (keywords, variables, etc.). The related sections in Zenodo are Basic information, Related/alternate identifiers, Contributors, References, Journal, Conference, Book/Report/Chapter, Thesis, and Subjects.
Administrative metadata: e.g. licenses, access rights and funding.
Zenodo supports various data and license types.
Submissions can be open or restricted as in the case of anonymized sensitive data. Refer to the section on Licenses.
