#pidinst — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #pidinst, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Siobhann McCafferty and @pid_perth spoke on #PersistentIdentifiers for Instruments at #PIDFest
    These #PIDs are for physical *instances*, not e.g. instrument make-model catalog entries (cf. RRIDs (rrids.org/), e.g. n2t.net/rrid:SCR_000011).

    Offered "best practices": use a DOI or a Handle, use the #PIDINST metadata schema (doi.org/10.15497/RDA00070), and use Handles for instrument calibration data. No formal recommendation offered re: schema for "calibration metadata record" or "configuration metadata record".

    One expressed hope: #MachineLearning for instrument calibration via calibration metadata records for particular instruments.
