Associated DOIs


Definition

This element stores DOIs that are associated with the collection such as from campaigns and other related sources. Note: The values should start with the directory indicator which in ESDIS' case is 10. If the DOI was registered through ESDIS, the beginning of the string should be 10.5067. The DOI URL is not stored here; it should be stored as a RelatedURL. The DOI organization that is responsible for creating the DOI is described in the Authority element. For ESDIS records the value of https://doi.org/ should be used. There are three sub-elements that comprise Direct Distribution Information:

  • DOI: The DOI (Digital Object Identifier) that identifies the resource.
  • Title: A brief description of the resource providing context for the DOI.
  • Authority: The DOI organization that is responsible for creating the DOI.
