- The Title is composed of several pieces of information describing the dataset: Deployment Location, Device Category, and Date of Deployment.
- The DOI is the persistent identifier for the entire dataset. ONC DOIs all begin with the prefix 10.34943. The DOI is included in the provided data citation.
- The Abstract provides the user with a high level description of the device deployment from which the data was collected, to help them identify if this dataset is appropriate for their purposes. The abstract consists of the device name, the date and site it was deployed at, a description of the site, the device category, a description of the device category, what type of platform it was deployed on (fixed, mobile, profiler), and a note about where the data was archived.
- The Creators are listed in this section. ONC has data partners who should be attributed appropriately within the landing page and citation. The Creator(s) is/are linked with their ROR, which resolves to their entry on the ROR portal.
- The Date Created section displays the date the version of the data became publicly available.
- The Funding References section includes any/all funding organizations that contributed to the data collection and archival.
- The Publisher section specifies the organization that made the data available to the public. The Publisher(s) is/are linked with their ROR, which resolves to the ROR entry on their portal.

- The Citation section provides the actual citation that ONC and our data partners would like users to use in outputs utilizing the data associated with the particular DOI. More and more publishers are requiring datasets to be referenced with DOIs as support for the COPDESS statement grows. Users can simply copy and paste the citation directly into their resources, bibliography, citation list, etc. The citation text is created according to the ESIP Data Citation Guidelines for Earth Sciences recommended best practices.
- The Data Links section provides the user with direct links to:
- Download data using Data Search: resolves to the instrument and deployment location in the Data Search page on Oceans 2.0
- View device details for ____: additional metadata and details about the instrument associated with the DOI, on its Device Listing page on Oceans 2.0
- Download latest ISO 19115 XML metadata: download the machine-readable ISO 19115 metadata record for the dataset. This metadata record is produced on-the-fly, meaning that it's content is based on the most current database entries.
- The Version History section provides details about any updates to the dataset after it was initially assigned its DOI, i.e., reprocessing of the data. The reason for the new version and the date it took place are also provided.
