We gave a report on our 3 days stay at ESS, Lynby

• Day 1: brought DESY user issues to Max, e.g.

  • P08: grouping and tagging datasets

  • FLASH issue (with “/”)

• Day 2: Dedicated to Task 3.3

  • We met Martin T from Sigma Technology and coded task 3.3

• Day 3:

  • Finished coding, added documentation (to be published)

  • Max and Regina talked about status of the DAPHNE contribution to SciCat and remaining tasks and how they will help the SciCat community. 

Already in the preparation phase it became clear that Task 2 of the DCS list (mapping DataCite fields) will not be tackled during this stay as more input like experimental techniques in a standardised way is required.

Nicolas presented the code changes, how to use it and what it means: We will have dataTypes removing constraints from current types (raw and derived). Questions arised on

• whether now optional fields are indexed/findable: yes, as they are high level fields; even if not indexed one can use elastic search to find them.

• will be documented (in swagger, and for user), dataTypes will be handled per site

• relation to schema → conclusion.

Conclusion: The use case will show how one can make use of it, providing now the option of hierarchical datasets.
