Data publication cycle. This cycle illustrates the scientific value chain for research data publication. The documentation of experimental metadata and result data represent the basis for scientific journal publications. These are the main outcomes of scientific work, representing scientific successes as the most important way of communication of research results in the community. A parallel public sharing of experimental data increase the scientific value by enabling tests for reproducibility and providing valuable resources for further downstream analysis. In turn, new findings that are reported in published datasets increase its scientific impact and boost the author’s scholarly credit. Data citation indexes are increasingly accepted as measurement for scientific success which in turn represents the most important prerequisite for project proposals and the acquisition of funding for new projects.
