Data Publishing Data publishing means publishing of research data for (re)use by others. It consists of preparing single files or a dataset containing several files for access in the WWW. This practice is part of the open science movement. There is consensus about the benefits resulting from Open Data - especially in connection with Open Access publishing. It is important to link the publication (e.g. thesis) with the underlying data and vice versa. General (not disciplinary) and free data repositories are: Harvard Dataverse (this one!) figshare (emphasis: multi media) Zenodo (emphasis: results from EU research, mainly text) Mendeley Data (emphasis: data associated with journal articles) To find data repositories use http://re3data.org Read more on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_publishing
