Summary of Examples

• Data (including description, links to sources)
• Code — reusable and publication-specific
• Version & file management repository
• Computational environment & Environment specification
• Platform — main dependency, reusable code distribution platform
• Rerunning/recomputing online platform
• Publishing/preservation repository

Data in Binder and Code Ocean

• Binder
  • 10s MB in Git repository
  • 100s MB downloaded by build script
  • downloaded on the fly or using Quilt
  • maybe use Pangeo instead of mybinder.org (no preservation plan yet)
• Code Ocean
  • Smaller datasets part of the capsule (counts towards quota)
  • Larger datasets as standalone public datasets (no quota)

Data Repositories

• Zenodo by CERN Data Centre & Invenio
• OSF (Open Science Framework) by Center for Open Science
• Dryad (non-profit with universities and publishers as members)
• HydroShare
• OpenTopography
• OpenGeoHub's OpenLandMap
• figshare
• Harvard Dataverse, UNC Dataverse (open to all)

Help: Open Incubator Program at NC State

• lib.ncsu.edu/open-incubator
• OPEN (Open Project Engagement Network) Incubator
• research development program
• designed to advance a project from idea to proof-of-concept
• produce research outputs that are FAIR
  • FAIR: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable
• possibly renewed for 2023 or use Open Knowledge Center
