The Peer REview for Publication & Accreditation of Research data
in the Earth sciences (PREPARDE) project seeks to capture the
processes and procedures required to publish a scientific dataset,
ranging from ingestion into a data repository, through to formal
publication in a data journal. It will also address key issues
arising in the data publication paradigm, namely, how does one
peer-review a dataset, what criteria are needed for a repository to
be considered objectively trustworthy, and how can datasets and
journal publications be effectively cross-linked for the benefit of
the wider research community.
