  3. Data publishing becomes increasingly important and already affects the policies of the world’s leading science funding frameworks and organizations. The concept of “open data” is described in the Protocol for Implementing Open Access Data, the Open Knowledge/Data Definition, the Panton Principles for Open Data in Science, and the Open Data Manual. 27 3 of

  4. White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) created the Big Data Research and Development Initiative started29 March 2012 • Directive of the Council of Europe recognising “the strategic importance for Europe’s scientific development of open access to scientific information” • On 17th July 2012, the European Commission outlined measures to improve access to scientific information produced in Europe in a Communication and a Recommendation to the Member States. 27 4 of

  5. Why do we need to publish our data?

  6. RE-USE of CONTENT Publishing and sharing of primary data Drawings: Slavena Peneva Primary data

  7. open data increases transparency and the overall quality of science • published data can be verified by other researchers • it can be integrated with other datasets • it increases the potential for interdisciplinary research • duplication of data-collecting efforts and associated costs will be reduced • published data can be indexed and made discoverable 27 7 of

  8. What is a Data Paper? A Data Paper is a scholarly journal publication whose primary purpose is to describe a dataset or a group of datasets, rather than to report a research investigation. • Its purposes are three-fold: • to provide a citable journal publication that brings scholarly credit to data publishers; • to describe the data in a structured human-readable form; • to bring the existence of the data to the attention of the scholarly community. 27 8 of

  9. Multiple Data Publishing Models • Supplementary data files downloadable from the journals website • Data deposited at specialized data repositories (Dryad, Pangaea) • Data published through data repositories but indexed and collated with other data (GenBank, GBIF IPT) • Data published in the form of marked-up and machine-readable text (XML).

  10. Key features of BDJ • Collaborative article authoring • Onlinepeer-review and editing • Community peer review; options for “open” and “public” review • Standard-compliant (DwC, NLM DTD) • Biological Codes compliant article templates • Semantically enhanced “articles of the future” • Integrated with GBIF, EOL, Dryad Scratchpads, etc.

  11. PWT is a collaborative article authoring and publishing platform for biodiversity science

  12. It provides:- templates for different kinds of biodiversity articles - links to external resources - various options for data publishing The missing link!It completes the cycle from writing a manuscript, through its submission, peer-review and editing, to publication and dissemination. And all this within a single online collaborative platform!

  13. Peer-review and publishing XML submission PENSOFT JOURNAL SYSTEM (PJS 2.0) Community , open, PUBLIC peer-review PWT Revisions online Authors, Reviewers, Editors, Mentors, Copyeditors MANUSCRIPT published (XML text + data) Taxon names Taxon treatments Occurr-ence data ARTICLES Biblio-graphies COL Plazi Wiki
