Result description
The EOSC Data Type Registry (DTR) allows the registration of Persistent Identifier (PID) metadata elements as data types, including provenance information and human readable description. The data types will be assigned a PID, which allows their use in PID metadata. Based on a validation schema, PID metadata records can then be validated.
Problem addressed
PID carry their own metadata to e.g. specify provenance, or to provide human readable descriptions. This metadata needs to be classified in a registry in order to enable machine readability and standardisation of PID schemes.
