Scusandomi per il cross posting, rilancio questa notizia apparsa sulla
lista JISC
Hi folks, some of you will have seen this already, but yesterday Google
launched a new dataset search feature
<https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-06201-x?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+nature%2Frss%2Fcurrent+(Nature+-+Issue)>
(Nature news article link).
You can give it a try yourself here:
https://toolbox.google.com/datasetsearch
A few initial observations: - It's definitely harvesting metadata from
DataCite and figshare; data.gov.uk and Kaggle are also in there, amongst
other sources. I'd be interested to know their criteria for choosing
sources and whether they can be persuaded to add to the list - It's
doing its best to *only* show datasets: for example, figshare records of
a type other than "Dataset" are not indexed - It's using a lot of the
metadata available, including affiliations, authors, license, and
presenting it in human readable form: get your metadata up to scratch!
It will be interesting to see whether this can be used to show people
how the completeness and accuracy of their metadata has a real-world
impact on whether their data gets found and used or just ignored. Jez
