MAGGOT : Metadata Management Tool for Data Storage Spaces

DOI

Sharing descriptive Metadata is the first essential step towards Open Scientific Data. With this in mind, Maggot was specifically designed to annotate datasets by creating a metadata file to attach to the storage space. Indeed, it allows users to easily add descriptive metadata to datasets produced within a collective of people (research unit, platform, multi-partner project, etc.). This approach fits perfectly into a data management plan as it addresses the issues of data organization and documentation, data storage and frictionless metadata sharing within this same collective and beyond.

Main features of Maggot

The main functionalities of Maggot were established according to a well-defined need (See Background)

Documente with Metadata your datasets produced within a collective of people, thus making it possible :

o answer certain questions of the Data Management Plan (DMP) concerning the organization, documentation, storage and sharing of data in the data storage space, to meet certain data and metadata requirements, listed for example by the Open Research Europe in accordance with the FAIR principles.

Search datasets by their metadata :

Indeed, the descriptive metadata thus produced can be associated with the corresponding data directly in the storage space then it is possible to perform a search on the metadata in order to find one or more sets of data. Only descriptive metadata is accessible by default.

Publish the metadata of datasets along with their data files into an Europe-approved repository
