EMBL-EBI - Providing harmonized information about organisations in identifiers.org using ROR registry
Description
European Bioinformatics Institute is Europe’s largest provider of public biomolecular data resources. The institute is co-located with
Elixir Hub and partnered with many relevant EU projects, including EOSC-Life, FREYA, and BY-COVID. In addition to supporting life
sciences, EMBL-EBI is increasingly collaborating with other domains, e.g., social sciences in COVID-19 research.
EMBL-EBI provides consistent access to life science data by leveraging compact identifiers through the Identifiers.org
resolution service. Anyone can use identifiers.org for consistent and globally unique references to objects in registered data
collections. For example, researchers can use our link to their objects using our URIs and these will remain resolvable even if the
object’s online location changes.
This use case focuses on the addition of metadata artefacts to the identifiers.org registry. This mainly consists of the use of the
ROR registry as a source of truth for institution data. Allowing the identifiers.org registry to correctly link its resources to the
institution in charge of managing it and verify its own metadata on them based on RORs metadata
