The Earth System Data Branding (EASYDAB) was developed within the BMBF funded project AtMoDat. EASYDAB requires that the datasets have an open license, comply with the FAIR Data Principles, and were reviewed by the responsible repository for compliance with a quality guideline. Earth system research datasets published with a DataCite DOI that fulfil the EASYDAB quality requirements can be highlighted with an EASYDAB logo on the landing page.
Using the EASYDAB label, repositories can indicate that they carefully curate datasets with FAIR principles in mind. Researchers can more easily find and evaluate well-described datasets.
The new version 1.2 was created to describe the requirements in the EASYDAB Guideline more precisely.
