= PANGAEA Bathymetry Web Map and Feature Service =

This new '''PANGAEA Bathymetry Web Map and Feature Service''' (first release 2021) contains bathymetry data archived at PANGAEA (including only data with a CC-BY 3.0 or CC-BY 4.0 license, based on the WMS standard, see https://www.ogc.org/standards/wms/). This service is developed as part of the '''German Marine Research Alliance''' in the core area '''"Data management and Digitalization"''' ('''Deutsche Allianz Meeresforschung, DAM''' https://www.allianz-meeresforschung.de/en/).
Note that not all bathymetry data currently archived in PANGAEA are visualized through this service. However, the number of datasets will be continuously increased in the future. As of now, only raw & processed data from multibeam echosounder measurements are incorporated in this service (further developments are in progress).
'''Please acknowledge that each layer of this service contains further usage requirements (e.g. citation rules) provided in the abstract (see [[PANGAEA_Bathymetry_Web_Map_Services#Layer_Abtracts|below]])'''. Data visualized in this service shall not be used for navigational purposes. 
For feedback & questions please contact PANGAEA. https://www.pangaea.de/contact/ 
This web map service is accessible via: 
'''https://maps.awi.de/services/common/pangaea_bathymetry/wms''' This web feature service is still considered a beta version and accessible via: 
'''https://maps.awi.de/services/common/pangaea_bathymetry/wfs'''

Each incorporated PANGAEA dataset in this service contains a vast amount of dataset-specific individual metadata. If you consider incorporating this service (data layers) into any front-end application (e.g., a web-based data portal), please also make the incorporated metadata of each layer available and visible to the user. 
Please note that a Geographic Information System (GIS) (e.g. QGIS https://qgis.org/ ) is required to access this service. However, data of this service can also be explored using the '''Viewer''' https://marine-data.de/?site=viewers of the '''Data Portal German Marine Research''' https://marine-data.de/. (see also below)

Further information about development and usage requirements are documented in Damaske et al. (2024). Generally cite the service also with:

Citation

Judith s weber: /* Why is the correct citation of datasets important? */

==Best practice of data citation==
[[File:Citation tools.JPG|400px|thumbnail|right|Citation tools (copy and export citation) located below the data set reference.]]

PANGAEA publishes data in a similar way as scientific journals do. And as such, published data sets are cited in a similar manner. A data citation should contain:
* the authors (creators)
* the publication year
* the dataset title
* the publisher
* a unique persistent identifier (e.g. a DOI)

The full data citation of each referenced data set should be included in the reference list of any publication citing the data. For the general structure, we follow the DataCite recommendations:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| ''Creator (PublicationYear): Title. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)''
|}

On the landing page of each data set, the suggested citation of the data set is displayed at the top, e.g. see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021 here]:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| ''Timofeeva, Anna; Smolyanitsky, Vasily; Bessonov, Vladimir; Petrovskiy, Tomash (2020): Special sea ice observations aboard Akademik Fedorov MOSAiC leg 1, 2019-09-25 to 2019-10-20. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021''
|}

The citation can be copied or exported in the preferred format using the copy or export buttons below the title. Further buttons enable sharing the reference via social media.

If the data publication is not related to a journal article, it is possible to include the Institution as a source of the data. It will appear in the suggested citation:

{| class="wikitable"
|-
| ''Creator (PublicationYear): Title. '''Institution'''. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)''
|}

As an example, see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050 here]:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| ''Burkhardt, Elke (2020): Whale sightings during Polarstern cruise PS95.1 (ANT-XXXI/1.1). Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven, PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.92405''
|}

===Where to refer to the data?===
As stated above, the full data citation should be contained in the reference list of any work citing the data.

But where in the text is the right position to refer to the data?
Obviously it depends on the context, for example on whether the data is original or reused.
Generally, the data can be cited in the methods or results section, or in the data availability section if offered by the journal.

For the latter, a suggestion to refer to the data would be:

"Data for this study were published open access (Authors, YYYY).", followed by the full citation of the dataset in the list of references.

==Why is the correct citation of datasets important?==

First of all, citing sources is good scientific practice. It gives credit to your work and the work of others, and increases reproducibility of findings and thus trust in your research (see also [https://datacite.org/cite-your-data.html DataCite: why to cite data]).

Secondly, in the increasing importance of Open data, citing data sets is an important part of the aspired rewarding system. Metrics are now starting to be provided by several platforms, such as [https://search.datacite.org DataCite]. However, citations can only be counted if data sets are referred to in the correct manner.

==Data sets ''"in review"''==
During the archiving and review process or when a [[password|moratorium]] is set on the data, for example due to the [[status|publication status]] of a connected manuscript, the data is kept in the [[status]] ''"in review"''. Datasets "in review" are usually only accessible for the contributing authors after logging in to PANGAEA. However, the metadata, including authors, title, references and parameters are already findable and visible in PANGAEA. At this stage, the data will be displayed on the website with a preliminary link instead of a registered, persistent DOI. This preliminary link can be recognized by the following format:

https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.XXXXXX (''XXXXXX = DataSetID'')

It can only be resolved by the PANGAEA DOI resolver. Once the review process is finished, the DOI will be registered and take the form of

https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.XXXXXX (''XXXXXX = DataSetID'')

It is important to note that datasets "in review" might be modified or even deleted during the review process. Only the second form guarantees persistent access and reference to the data. Citation of any data with the [[status]] "in review" should be avoided.

==Publication of data in PANGAEA==
After technical review by the editor, import and approval of the author/PI, a dataset is set to [[status]] ''published'' and appears as ''citable'' on the Internet. Upon publication of a data set, the DOI registration is initiated. This process is finalized after 28 days. During this time, the data set can still be modified. However, after finalizing the DOI registration, the data set is published and cannot be changed anymore. Any changes to the dataset would be analogous to an erratum of a journal article.

Small adjustments, as the correction of small mistakes or typos, can still occur and are displayed as metadata „Change history“, both on the data set landing page (below the parameter overview) and the downloaded data set. As an example see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.882624 here]:

{| class="wikitable"

* a unique persistent identifier (e.g. a DOI)

The full data citation of each referenced data set should be included in the reference list of any publication citing the data. For the general structure, we follow the DataCite recommendations:

''Creator (PublicationYear): Title. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)''

On the landing page of each data set, the suggested citation of the data set is displayed at the top, e.g. see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021 here]:

„Timofeeva, Anna; Smolyanitsky, Vasily; Bessonov, Vladimir; Petrovskiy, Tomash (2020): Special sea ice observations aboard Akademik Fedorov MOSAiC leg 1, 2019-09-25 to 2019-10-20. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021“

The citation can be copied or exported in the preferred format using the copy or export buttons below the title. Further buttons enable sharing the reference via social media.

If the data publication is not related to a journal article, it is possible to include the Institution as a source of the data. It will appear in the suggested citation:

''Creator (PublicationYear): Title. '''Institution'''. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)''

As an example, see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050 here]:

„Burkhardt, Elke (2020): Whale sightings during Polarstern cruise PS95.1 (ANT-XXXI/1.1). Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven, PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050“

===Where to refer to the data?===
As stated above, the full data citation should be contained in the reference list of any work citing the data.

But where in the text is the right position to refer to the data?
Obviously it depends on the context, for example on whether the data is original or reused.
Generally, the data can be cited in the methods or results section, or in the data availability section if offered by the journal.

For the latter, a suggestion to refer to the data would be:

"Data for this study were published open access (Authors, YYYY).", followed by the full citation of the dataset in the list of references.

==Why is the correct citation of datasets important?==

First of all, citing sources is good scientific practice. It gives credit to your work and the work of others, and increases reproducibility of findings and thus trust in your research (see also [https://datacite.org/cite-your-data.html data cites why to cite data]).

Secondly, in the increasing importance of Open data, citing data sets is an important part of the aspired rewarding system. Metrics are now starting to be provided by several platforms, such as [https://search.datacite.org data cite]. However, citations can only be counted if data sets are referred to in the correct manner.

==Data sets ''"in review"''==
During the archiving and review process or when a [[password|moratorium]] is set on the data, for example due to the [[status|publication status]] of a connected manuscript, the data is kept in the [[status]] ''"in review"''. Datasets "in review" are usually only accessible for the contributing authors after logging in to PANGAEA. However, the metadata, including authors, title, references and parameters are already findable and visible in PANGAEA. At this stage, the data will be displayed on the website with a preliminary link instead of a registered, persistent DOI. This preliminary link can be recognized by the following format:

https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.XXXXXX (''XXXXXX = DataSetID'')

It can only be resolved by the PANGAEA DOI resolver. Once the review process is finished, the DOI will be registered and take the form of

https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.XXXXXX (''XXXXXX = DataSetID'')

It is important to note that datasets "in review" might be modified or even deleted during the review process. Only the second form guarantees persistent access and reference to the data. Citation of any data with the [[status]] "in review" should be avoided.

==Publication of data in PANGAEA==
After technical review by the editor, import and approval of the author/PI, a dataset is set to [[status]] ''published'' and appears as ''citable'' on the Internet. Upon publication of a data set, the DOI registration is initiated. This process is finalized after 28 days. During this time, the data set can still be modified. However, after finalizing the DOI registration, the data set is published and cannot be changed anymore. Any changes to the dataset would be analogous to an erratum of a journal article.

Small adjustments, as the correction of small mistakes or typos, can still occur and are displayed as metadata „Change history“, both on the data set landing page (below the parameter overview) and the downloaded data set. As an example see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.882624 here]:

''Creator (PublicationYear): Title. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)''

On the landing page of each data set, the suggested citation of the data set is displayed at the top, e.g. see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021 here]:

„Timofeeva, Anna; Smolyanitsky, Vasily; Bessonov, Vladimir; Petrovskiy, Tomash (2020): Special sea ice observations aboard Akademik Fedorov MOSAiC leg 1, 2019-09-25 to 2019-10-20. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021“

The citation can be copied or exported in the preferred format using the copy or export buttons below the title.
If the data publication is not related to a journal article, it is possible to in include the Institution as a source of the data. It will appear in the suggested citation:

''Creator (PublicationYear): Title. '''Institution'''. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)''

As an example, see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050 here]:

„Burkhardt, Elke (2020): Whale sightings during Polarstern cruise PS95.1 (ANT-XXXI/1.1). Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven, PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050“

===Where to refer to the data?===
As stated above, the full data citation should be contained in the reference list of any work citing the data.

But where in the text is the right position to refer to the data?
Obviously it depends on the context, how the data is used, if it is reused data or original data.
Generally, the data can be cited in the methods or results section, or in the data availability section if offered by the journal.

For the latter, a suggestion to refer to the data would be:

"Data for this study were published open access (Authors, YYYY).", followed by the full citation of the dataset in the list of references.

==Data sets ''"in review"''==
During the archiving and review process or when a moratorium is set on the data, for example due to the publication status of a connected manuscript, the data is kept in the status ''"in review"''. A dataset "in review" might be modified or even deleted during the review process. During this process, the data will be displayed on the website with a preliminary link instead if a registered, persistent DOI. This preliminary link can be recognized by the following format:

https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.''DataSetID''

It can only be resolved by the PANGAEA DOI resolver. Once the DOI is registered, it will take the form of

https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.''DataSetID''

Only the from guarantees persistent access and reference to the data. Citation of any data with the status "in review" should be avoided.

==Publication of data in PANGAEA==
After technical review by the curator, import and approval of the author/PI, a dataset is set to [[status]] ''published'' and appears as ''citable'' on the Internet. Upon publication of a data set, the DOI registration is initiated.

This process is finalized after 28 days. During this time, the data set can still be modified. However, after finalizing the DOI registration, the data set is published and cannot be changed anymore. Any changes to the dataset would be analougous to an erratum of a journal article.

Small adjustments, as the correction of small mistakes or typos, can still occur and are displayed as metadata „dataset history“, both on the data set landing page and the downloaded data set. As an example see [https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.882624 here]:

The name of ''PANGAEA - Data '''Publisher''' for Earth and Environmental Science'' points to its ability to ''publish'' data. By using Pangaea as a ''publisher'', entities of data, as definied by the authors, are handled similar to scientific publications. Each metadata block starts with a tag '''Citation:''' consisting of standard bibliographic fields:
----
* '''Author'''(s); last name and first name/initial, separated by comma; several authors are abbreviated by ''et al.'';
* '''Year''' of publication, in brackets, i.e. the year when the data set was made available (digital or print);
* '''Title''' of the data set;
* ''Source'' institution; this information is optional and only used, if data are not supplementary to a reference.
* '''[[DOI]]''', starting with '''''10.1594/PANGAEA.''''' ...
----
After technical review by the curator, import and approval of the author/PI, a dataset is set to [[status]] ''published'' and appears as ''citable'' on the Internet. To become a data publication, the status is set to ''published & citable'' which initiates an entry of the citation in the library catalog of the TIB ([https://getinfo.de GetInfo]). For 4 weeks, this entry can still be edited until final DOI-registration. An immediate DOI-registration can be forced by the curator on request. Similar to text publications, data publications can not be changed after final registration/publication.

Pangaea provides three versions of ''citable data'':

1) '''Data [[supplement]]''' - data are supplementary to a scientific paper and thus are integral part of the paper and of its peer-review:
*''Hollis, Chris (1993): Latest Cretaceous to Late Paleocene radiolarian biostratigraphy: A new zonation from the New Zealand region, Marine Micropaleontology, 21(4), 295-327, {{doi|10.1016/0377-8398(93)90024-R}}, [supplementary data: {{doi|10.1594/PANGAEA.683866}}]''.

::Always the publication must be cited when using the data. The full citation given by Pangaea contains two DOIs: one linking to the paper itself, and the second as the DOI of the data supplement. There is an ongoing discussion depending on the scientific discipline wether a data supplement should be seen as a publication by its own (librarian view) or as part of the paper (scientific view).
::An other point of discussion is the publication year of a data supplement. In new publications certainly both years, the one of the paper and the one of the data supplement, are the same. Archiving old/printed data, the year of the data supplement can have the year of the related publication '''or''' the year when the data were made available in digitized form (librarian view). Preference are given to the year of the printed version (to avoid confusion), e.g. {{doi|10.1594/PANGAEA.849173}}.

2) '''[[Data publication]]''' can be defined through the ''publishing functionality'' of Pangaea. ''Publishing data'' just through a data system is new and was invented during the DFG-project [[STD-DOI]]. This way is not an established process in science so far. In pure data publications, the institute must be given as the source:
*Bauer, Wilfried; Spaeth, G; Jacobs, Joachim; Weber, Klaus; Siegesmund, S; Thomas, RJ (2004): Geological map of BJORNNUTANE, Heimefrontfjella, Antarctica (Scale 1:25 000). Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven; Institut for Geologie und Dynamik der Lithosphäre, Göttingen; Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie, Frankfurt, {{doi|10.1594/PANGAEA.138777}}

3) For '''peer-reviewed data publications''' various [http://proj.badc.rl.ac.uk/preparde/blog/DataJournalsList Data Journals] for different scientific fields are available. Examples:
* [http://earth-system-science-data.net/ Earth System Science Data] by Copernicus,
* [http://www.nature.com/sdata/ Scientific Data] by Nature,
* [http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)2049-6060 Geoscience Data Journal] by Wiley.
----
[[File:Ands-citationflow.png|thumb|Scetch about the advantages of a consequently used ''data citation'' (Australian National Data Service)]]

Suggestion for a note in a journal article or report referring to its data '''supplement''':
*''Supplementary data are available at https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.xxxxxx'' (where xxxxxx is the PANGAEA dataset ID)

Suggestion for a note in a '''book''' or special volume of a journal containing various publications referring to the general use of Pangaea:
*''Data related to the publications of this volume are available in Open Access through PANGAEA - Data Publisher for Earth & Environmental Science, {{doi|10.1594/PANGAEA}}. Individual data sets are referenced by its DOI for direct access and citation.

----
'''Work in Progress'''
==Best practice of data citation==
PANGAEA publishes data similar to scientific journal publications. And as such, published data sets have to be cited in a similar matter. A data citation should contain:
* the authors (creators)
* the publication year
* the dataset title
* the publisher
* a unique persistent identifier (e.g. a DOI)

The full data citation of each referenced data set should be included in the reference list of any publication citing the data. For the general structure, we follow the DataCite recommendations:

Creator (PublicationYear): Title. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)

On the landing page of each data set, the suggested citation of the data set is displayed at the top, e.g. https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021:

„Timofeeva, Anna; Smolyanitsky, Vasily; Bessonov, Vladimir; Petrovskiy, Tomash (2020): Special sea ice observations aboard Akademik Fedorov MOSAiC leg 1, 2019-09-25 to 2019-10-20. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.912021“

''if the data publication is not related to a journal article, it is possible to in include the Institution as a source of the data.'' It will appear in the suggested citation:

Creator (PublicationYear): Title. '''Institution'''. Publisher (PANGAEA). Identifier (DOI)

As an example, see https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050:

„Burkhardt, Elke (2020): Whale sightings during Polarstern cruise PS95.1 (ANT-XXXI/1.1). Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, Bremerhaven, PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.924050“

==Publication of data in PANGAEA==
After technical review by the curator, import and approval of the author/PI, a dataset is set to [[status]] ''published'' and appears as ''citable'' on the Internet. Upon publication of a data set, the DOI registration is initiated.

This process is finalized after 28 days. During this time, the data set can still be modified. However, after finalizing the DOI registration, the data set is published and cannot be changed anymore. Any changes to the dataset would be analougous to an erratum of a journal article.

Small adjustments, as the correction of small mistakes or typos, can still occur and are displayed as metadata „dataset history“, both on the data set landing page and the downloaded data set. As an example see https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.882624.
