Abstract

In order to share and reuse research data, data repositories are operated mainly by research institutes, communities, and countries. Currently, there are 3,236 data repositories registered on re3data.org, and the repositories are operated by each subject. The purpose of this study is to identify the operational status of data repositories in the Geoscience field and provide repository services in the field. As a result of the study, 634 out of 890 data repositories in the Geoscience field satisfied more than 4 out of 9 properties, confirming that approximately 74% of the repositories are generally well operated. In addition, as a result of checking the services in the repositories, it was found that they provide various implications in terms of data policy, curation, tools and APIs, and quality management. These research results will serve as a basis for reference when configuring data repository services in the Geoscience field in the future.
