Do your researchers struggle with complex metadata schemas, PID types or scheme-URIs when submitting metadata? With ELMO, the new web editor from GFZ Data Services, they can simply fill in an easy-to-use online form, similar to Google Forms, and generate rich, FAIR, descriptive metadata for data publications at the same time.
In this talk, you will learn about:
How the functionalities of ELMO, specifically ORCID preloading, ROR autocompletion and guided controlled vocabularies help minimize errors and curation effort
How 'PID magic' happens in the background, with automatic recognition of DOIs, IGSNs and ARKs as related identifiers
How ELMO makes PID use a natural part of metadata entry and delivering valid DataCite 4.7 XML
Your takeaway: a concrete example of a user-centred metadata tool that is already in daily use at GFZ Data Services, providing researchers with real added value through the use of PIDs.
