Dataset records capture information about one or more database records or collections. Dataset deposits do not to contain the entire database record or collection, only descriptive metadata. The metadata can include:
- Contributors: the author(s) of a database record or collection titles: the title of a database record or collection
- Date: (within <database_date>) the creation date, publication date (if different from the creation date) and the date of last update of the record
- Record number / other identifier: (within <publisher_item>) the record number of the dataset item. In this context, <publisher_item> can be used for the record number of each item in the database.
- Description: (within <description>) a brief summary description of the contents of the database
- Format: the format type of the dataset item if it includes files rather than just text. Note the format element here should not be used to describe the format of items deposited as part of the component_list
- Citations: (within <citation_list>) a list of items (e.g. journal articles) cited by the dataset item. For example, dataset entry from a taxonomy might cite the article in which a species was first identified.
The dataset_type attribute should be set to either "record" or "collection" to indicate the type of deposit. The default value of this attribute is "record".
Constructing dataset deposits
<database> is the container for all information about a set of datasets. The top-level “database” may be a functional database or an abstraction acting as a collection (much like a journal is a collection of articles). Individual dataset entries are captured within the <dataset> element.
Examples
A dataset deposit containing several datasets: review the sample below or download an XML file.
