Submitting Data to DASSH

DASSH can accommodate a wide range of electronic data types and file formats, and data can be submitted by email, by file transfer, or by post (on suitable media).  DASSH will archive, QA and publish marine biodiversity data and metadata, and will create a data DOI, free of charge under the condition that the data are provided in MEDIN Guideline format.  Please see the table below for other supported data standards.

DASSH is the MEDIN Data Archive Centre (DAC) for marine biodiversity data, so if your project has a requirement to submit data to a MEDIN DAC and falls within the marine biodiversity theme, get in touch with the team to start to the submission process.  For further information about the submission process for other MEDIN DACs, please visit the MEDIN website.

Submitting data is easy, just contact the DASSH team by email (dassh.enquiries@mba.ac.uk) or by phone (+44 (0)1752 426237).
