Enabling Connections among Persistent Identifiers (PIDs)
Wednesday January 22, 2025 1:30pm - 3:00pm EST
Room 5
Persistent Identifiers (PIDs) are being assigned to many types of entities in the research ecosystem, including for people, organizations, datasets, software, instruments, facilities, projects, samples, and others. As PIDs proliferate, new questions and challenges arise, including how to establish connections between PIDs for related resources. Examples of possible connections include how datasets and software are produced by people and organizations. Likewise, people use instruments and facilities, which use software and produce data. Similarly, organizations manage projects, data, facilities, and people. In short, the types of connections and relationships among PIDs range widely, and vary considerably depending on many factors.  

This session will explore approaches to establishing, managing, and leveraging relationships among PIDs. The goal will be to facilitate discussion within the ESIP community about PID-to-PID relationships.

Speakers will include:

Matt Mayernik - NSF National Center for Atmospheric Research
Topic - Connecting datasets to underlying research resources like software, instruments, and facilities.

Ted Habermann - Metadata Game Changers
Topic - Describing relationships between PIDs via metadata.

Madison Langseth - US Geological Survey
Topic - USGS approach for leveraging people and organization identifiers in DOIs metadata.

Shelley Stall - American Geophysical Union
Topic - Update on work in the RDA Complex Citation group, which is working on recommendations for citing a large number of existing objects (e.g., datasets, software, or physical samples) in a way that allows credit for individual objects to be properly assigned.

Value to Session Participants: We hope that the participants will learn about new efforts to connect PIDs, and will get ideas about how they might pursue this work within their own organizations.

Recommended Ways to Prepare: Participants would benefit from reviewing the ESIP data citation guidelines if they are not familiar with this document.
