DOI Submission Process

DOI Submission Options

There three options for submitting DOIs; assigning, reserving and registering. 

1. Assign:   Data provider can submit DOIs to ESDIS for review with few data product properties to establish assignment of DOI for the products. Purpose will be to select an appropriate DOI model that meets all the needs of the data provider and review associated requirements and guidelines as outlined in the ESDIS DOI registration process including data products properties as listed in Table 1. This information will be only visible from the ESDIS wiki website.

2. Reserve: Data provider can submit DOIs to ESDIS with few data product properties to reserve DOI for the products after the assignment review has been completed. Purpose will be to reserve the DOI with ESDIS to ensure unique identifier. This information will be only visible from the ESDIS wiki website. This step may only have a DOI assigned to a product but does not have to have a landing page ready.

3. Register: Data Provider can request ESDIS to register DOIs  with EZID when data provider is ready  and all of the mandatory data product properties as listed in Table 1 have been provided to ESDIS this including a landing page. At this point the DOIs will be accessible by the general public and need to have associated landing pages.
