Open licenses for research data

Abstract[edit]

There are multiple ways in which research data can be shared, and one of the issues to be addressed in the process is that of the rights that users should have when using the data. Open licenses come in a variety of flavours, but they have in common that they do not restrict who can reuse materials, nor for what purposes. In this talk, several open licenses will be discussed in terms of their applicability to research data, along with machine readability, and best practices for data citation.

Original focus[edit]

  • Creative Commons wiki: Data
    • Includes FAQ on questions related to the use of Creative Commons licenses for data
    • Largely covered in the following talk, "Schutz und Lizenzierung von Forschungsdaten" (Andreas Wiebe, University of Göttingen)

Perspectives on sharing research data[edit]

Issues[edit]

Cultural[edit]

Adélie penguins are identified and weighed each time they cross the automated weighbridge on their way to and from the sea. The data are recorded but not made public, not even in or alongside the "publication".


  • Two videos providing the basis for an article[2] but not published along with it.
A water droplet surviving an attempt to be cut by a knife. A water droplet cut by a knife.

Technical[edit]

Legal[edit]

  • The focus of this session.

Data sharing in practice[edit]

Generating data[edit]

  • complete, with sufficient metadata for analysis
  • manually or through bots
  • attribution
  • provisions for not sharing sensitive data
  • contractual or institutional limits regarding data sharing
  • must take into account the opinions of/ regulations for co-authors

Reusing data[edit]

  • discoverability
  • proper metadata
  • clear licensing and authorship statements
  • manually or through bots
  • API
  • common formats
  • common standards

Curating data[edit]

  • clear licensing and authorship statements not always possible
  • a lot of effor goes into proper metadata
  • discoverability
  • manually or through bots
  • long-term preservation
  • open data formats
  • open standards

Data stewardship regulations[edit]

  • many funders and institutions now require a data management plan or similar
  • much of this is limited to the project duration
  • many project-funded infrastructures have a short life span
  • LOCKSS
  • CLOCKSS
  • making data management plans machine readable is on the horizon at the NIH

Data sharing in theory[edit]

Principles and definitions[edit]

Open data licenses[edit]
