Hi Michael and WG members,
Thanks for your efforts in putting together this repository attributes
proposal. We’ve been using the ESIP-endorsed Guidelines for describing
repositories
with
science-on-schema.org
,
so I thought it might be helpful to see how the RDA WG proposed attributes
mapped onto the ESIP schema.org recommendation. Nicely, there is a lot of
alignment. I opened a ticket in the science-on-schema.org repository
to try to
further align these efforts, and I thought that material might be useful to
DRAWG too. I attach below a JSON-LD metadata file that describes the Arctic
Data Center with a union of the attributes from the ESIP guidelines and the
RDA proposed set. You’ll see that of the 28 top-level attributes that I
found across both documents, I was able to map 22 of them to reasonable
schema.org properties, while the remaining 6 I put in the “example”
namespace as a placeholder until it can be determined where they should go.
The document is attached, and the 6 properties I couldn’t map are:
– “ex:persistentIdentifiers”
– “ex:machineInteroperability”
– “ex:metadata”
– “ex:curation”
– “ex:preservationPolicy
– “ex:termsOfAccess”
I’ve also included a csv mapping file that shows the correspondence between
the RDA attributes and the schema.org properties that I thought best
matched. Hope you all find this helpful, and looking forward to the results
of your work.
Matt
