Data papers as a catalyst for Open Access and the long tail of research data

The ambition of this poster is twofold: On the one hand, it aims to shed more light on data papers by showing their publication cycle, representing the various actors contributing and the relationship to other academic works. It also shows the added value of data papers and the potential that this new form of academic publication has for Open Access. On the other hand, it shows the need of a consortial activity in Switzerland towards the creation of a data paper platform for the long tail of research data.
