How can we find out who would like to be harvester? Would equipment.data, OPD or OpenAIRE contribute?

Run a project with some technical genius who knows about corpora and text mining to generate keywords / subject metadata to aid searching and browsing.

Supporting repositories to produce better metadata e.g. Eprints plugin for OAI-PMH in DataCite format.

Phase 2&3

Problem Areas

Status of metadata from PURE? Phase 3?

Phase 2&3

Future Considerations

Reengage researchers to do some user testing

Phase 2&3

Future Considerations

The service as currently provided only partically meets our needs - UKERC has the role of being the one stop shop for energy research data. So whilst we are content for our metadata to be harvested, we would like to be able to PULL data INTO our centre from UKRDDS.

Requirements

Focus on discovery rather than retrieval -> pointing to home page / landing page for dataset may be better than trying to link to files

Requirements

What does "Followers 0" mean? This doesn't seem to serve a purpose

Requirements

Drop or hide JSON view

Requirements

Drop or hide tech metadata

Requirements

OCA(?): find research outputs from my institution is NOT yet there. How search for "creator affiliation"?

Requirements

The home page needs to be much more user friendly e.g. fact filtering more obvious e.g. advanced search easier to use (drop downs) e.g. explain how to use map / filter by location e.g. FAQ

Requirements

About is actually about CKAN not service

Requirements

Direct file level access is not necessary and makes no sense if data are not open (e.g. Southampton link "resources" should go to dataset record; now it goes to file level link

Requirements

It is not apparent that the list of the left hand side were actually filters

Requirements

Importance of organisations isn't a function of the aspect ratio of their logos

Requirements

Map of boundary box displayed on metadata page (where relevant)

Requirements

Organisation names in navigation list are truncated too short

Requirements

Improve discoverability to data in our repository so not hidden under "Explore"

Requirements

Browsing by time periods visual display showing datasets from a particular time period

Requirements

Mapping tool - add functionality to change whether point is inside or overlapping i.e. within the box or in countries covered by box

Requirements

Browsing by geographical location OF RESEARCH not by institution where dataset is held

Requirements

Requirements

Harvest metadata from sheffield.figshare.com

Requirements

Credit roles

Requirements

Add citation metadata fields to MD mapping document. To get citation structure right per record

Requirements

Add links to - articles - projects - equipment etc

Requirements

Add touch screen support to the mapping too

Requirements

Harvesting from PURE. Otherwise not providing service for stand.

Requirements

The initial search facility i.e. a phrase, was sufficient but the advanced search was hard to use as I did not know what field names were allowed - even when I put what I thought was a valid one, the advanced search gave me the same number of answers as the simple search. Why do I need the "display as JSON" button?

Requirements

Looking at additional info for ISIS (STFC) dataset it is unclear (to me as a user) what the difference is between metadata created (3/12/16), last updated (12/10/16), metadata modified (2016/04/08) - and why metadata creation date is LATER than metadata modified date. Dataset = Lithium titanium niobium oxides

System Test

Citation has OAI URL. Should be URL or DOI instead.

System Test

CCDC metadata: description includes DataCite description type "other" - should just include type "Abstract"

System Test

Access & Licence information a bit muddled for NERC (GEMINI) records

System Test

Citation information incorrect for NERC records

System Test

CCDC records - more information. Why are "last updated" and "created" UNKNOWN?

System Test

Citation data appearing at bottom of page below all metadata. Licence filter on home page not showing any licences

System Test

Southampton

ePrints (Southampton) unique resource identifier - should use Relation

System Test

Has harvesting from DataShare broken on staging server? Only 242 datasets found (below cap) whereas 1304 datasets on live server (probably right for April 2016). Today 1458 datasets in DataShare itself

System Test

No DOI? (DataCite v3)

System Test

By the explore box - UUID from PURE displayed. Not sure why?

System Test

FundRef is not a Contributor (Datacite v3)

System Test

Citation - why the oai-oai-datacite.orge - 2945317 at end?

System Test

Date not pulled from DataCite for St Andrews

System Test

Changing the sort order changes the number of results retrieved. What is name?

System Test

Search box doesn't clear

System Test

Linkable keywords have lost brackets e.g. CCDC124497 and commas e.g. CCDC113019

System Test

Why is the "additional information" found from "Explore" not the same as "additional information" in the main metadata? Dataset = New Earnings Survey, 1971 (that shows this)

System Test

More information: "licence" not "license" (this is a UK service after all!)

System Test

CSV format on MIME Type recognition. Does CKAN recognise this? Proliferation of file formats.

System Test

Display persistent ID (DOI, etc) if present in source repository (e.g. doesn't happen for Glasgow)

System Test

"Citation" section on each record page. How is this generated? Doesn't look like proper citation in most cases.

System Test

Only showing one of the listed formats from DataCite e.g. RGBD-action-completion-2015

System Test

Showing single file only - not sure where link comes from 9053525

System Test

File level licence info not being picked up in the File Level "Licence" display, but is being picked up at dataset level (e.g. most recent Leeds records)

System Test

For Edinburgh DataShare, "Data and Resources". If not giving list of full files, it giving a number from the handle and another number from the DOI. Both go to some landing page e.g. http://hdl.handle.net/10283/1908

System Test

For Edinburgh DataShare, licence info not being picked up e.g. http://hdl.handle.net/10283/780. If we put the info in a Rights field, would this help? (have been thinking of doing this)

System Test

For Edinburgh DataShare, data creators not being picked up in staging service but are being picked up in live service e.g. http:/hdl.handle.net/10283/780

System Test

For Edinburgh DataShare, "Data and Resources" do not correspond to file level info in original (have different metadata fields from same record displayed) see http://hdl.handle.net/10283/780

System Test

UK Data Service - "There is no description for this organisation"

System Test

UK Data Service - citation - includes text from "other acknowledgements" field

System Test

UK Data Service - Abstract - low readability as line breaks ignored

System Test

Creator missing on last few UKDS records (results page 48-50)

System Test

Not picking up subject scheme identifier / name from DataCite metadata

System Test

Advanced Search Publisher contains St Andrews. Brings "Internal Traffic 10.J284/1011174 - not St Andrews

System Test

Missing funder information from DataCite metadata

System Test

Missing creator_identifier_scheme from DataCite metadata

System Test

Not pulling through date from DataCite metadata

System Test

UK Data Service HTML not rendered

System Test

Citation should include DOI. Doesn't need to have the OAI identifier

System Test

Would be good to include "date minted" as the "date created"

System Test

ISIS data - doesn't seem to have any of dates associated with the actual data creation/release. Dates are all about the display system.

System Test

STFC/ISIS data - format displaying as isis neutron raw; binary; 2; name - not sure what 2; name means. Mapping error?

System Test

Comment: "view as JSON" on top of search box is unfriendly

System Test

Usability when a dataset has many data files - ends up with a long list which looks a little bit out of context. Also might be interested in packaging them in some method.

System Test

Comment: Advanced search - doesn't give a drop down for the fields to search over, so if you don't know them then it is of no use!

System Test

Can we have "Citation" nearer the top of the page. Very wasteful for encouraging proper re-use

System Test

Date format could be nicer

System Test

DataCite records can include "related" identifiers" that may e.g. point to articles or other resources - should those be included in RDDS?

System Test

No DOI harvested. Need to pull data from "id_number" field

System Test

Can we have a link to the Glasgow/institution landing page via "Explore"

System Test

Generally, there are a mix of dates relating to either CKAN record or the dataset itself. Which relates to which is not obvious and potentially confusing.

System Test

"date": will a casual user know what this is the date of?

System Test

Why does citation include some "oai-oai" type identifier?

System Test

Can we have nicer labels for field names? E.g. "htpp_access_status". What does "set_spec" mean? Do we need it displayed?

System Test

Would like to see a hyperlinked dataset DOI displayed more prominently when available

System Test

Why doesn't citation at bottom of page include DOI if available?

System Test

More information: "created" -> what is this referring to?

System Test

Metadata created: might a casual user think this is the date the metadata was originally created? Assuming it is in fact date created in CKAN.

System Test

Not sure what "last updated" means. Is it "Date last harvested"?

System Test

When you view an individual record it would be good to have a back button to the search page.

System Test

As a user I found the displayed fields somewhat opaque e.g. what does "http_access_status" mean? What is "set_spec"? Perhaps some fields are useful only to database specialists, but meaningless to users -> different display modes - "users" - "databases"

System Test

With no search terms set the filter list says 7,578 datasets HTML 919 but if you press on that there are now 951 datasets displayed. Why 951, why not 919?

System Test

RightsHolder in DataCite being mapped to contributor with no role

System Test

Include a link to original metadata landing page in source repository - via DOI if present?

System Test

I think there should be a link back to original repository record wherever possible

System Test

Lack of prominent link to repository record

System Test

Creator should be displayed before contributors
