Result¶

Results are intended as digital objects, described by metadata, resulting from a scientific process.

Result¶

field name	cardinality	type	description
id	ONE	string	Main entity identifier, created according to OpenAIRE_entity_identifier_and_PID_mapping_policy
type	ONE	string	Type of the result: one of 'publication', 'dataset', 'software', 'other' as declared in the terms from the dnet:result_typologies vocabulary
originalId	MANY	string	Identifiers of the record at the original sources
maintitle	ONE	string	A name or title by which a scientific result is known. May be the title of a publication, of a dataset or the name of a piece of software.
subtitle	ONE	string	Explanatory or alternative name by which a scientific result is known.
author	MANY	Author	The main researchers involved in producing the data, or the authors of the publication
bestaccessright	ONE	AccessRight (should be changed as it must NOT include the openaccessroute)	The most open access right associated to the manifestations of this research results.
contributor	MANY	string	The institution or person responsible for collecting, managing, distributing, or otherwise contributing to the development of the resource.
country	MANY	Country	Country associated with the result. TODO: explain or link why
coverage	MANY	string	???
dateofcollection	ONE	string	When OpenAIRE collected the record the last time. TODO: we should indicate the used date format
description	MANY	string	A brief description of the resource and the context in which the resource was created.
embargoenddate	ONE	string	Date when the embargo ends and this result turns Open Access. TODO: we should indicate the used date format
instance	MANY	Instance	Specific materialization or version of the result. For example, you can have one result with three instances: one is the pre-print, one is the post-print, one is the published version
language	ONE	Qualifier	code: alpha-3/ISO 639-2 code of the language. Label: Language label in English. Values controlled by the dnet:languages vocabulary
lastupdatetimestamp	ONE	long	Timestamp of last update of the record in OpenAIRE
pid	MANY	Pid	Persistent identifiers of the result. See also OpenAIRE_entity_identifier_and_PID_mapping_policy to learn more.
publicationdate	ONE	string	Main date of the research product: typically the publication or issued date. In case of a research result with different versions with different dates, the date of the result is selected as the most frequent well-formatted date. If not available, then the most recent and complete date among those that are well-formatted. For statistics, the year is extracted and the result is counted only among the result of that year. Example: Pre-print date: 2019-02-03, Article date provided by repository: 2020-02, Article date provided by Crossref: 2020, OpenAIRE will set as date 2019-02-03, because it’s the most recent among the complete and well-formed dates. If then the repository updates the metadata and set a complete date (e.g. 2020-02-12), then this will be the new date for the result because it becomes the most recent most complete date. However, if OpenAIRE then collects the pre-print from another repository with date 2019-02-03, then this will be the “winning date” because it becomes the most frequent well-formatted date.
publisher	ONE	string	The name of the entity that holds, archives, publishes prints, distributes, releases, issues, or produces the resource.
source	MANY	string	A related resource from which the described resource is derived. See definition of Dublin Core field dc:source
subjects	MANY	Subject	Subject, keyword, classification code, or key phrase describing the resource.
