Profile

The DataCatalog profile covers the schema.org and bioschemas.org properties necessary to describe data repositories and catalogues in the life sciences.

Example Markup

This repository contains example markup for the DataCatalog profile generated by the Data Repositories group. Examples are purely illustrative and may use fictional data.

Examples should be stored in a subfolder indicating which version of the profile it is valid for. Please check to ensure the example you are reading matches the version of the profile you are interested in.

Creating your own DataCatalog metadata

1. Copy the template.json example.
2. Change the values of the minimum fields.
3. Add as many recommended and optional fields as possible.
4. Wrap up the example using script tags.

<script type="application/ld+json">
  ....
</script>

5. Embed the example in your landing page.
