[fitsbits] DOI keyword usage for FITS? {External}

[Seaman, Robert Lewis - (rseaman)]

Ok, the current FITS standard has:


REFERENC keyword. The value field shall contain a character string citing a reference where the data associated with the header are published. It is recommended that either the 19-digit bibliographic identifier8 used in the Astrophysics Data System bibliographic databases (http://adswww.harvard.edu/) or the Digital Object Identifier (http://doi.org) be included in the value string, when available (e.g., ’1994A&AS..103..135A’ or ’doi:10.1006/jmbi.1998.2354’).



We’ll do that if nobody recommends otherwise.

Howdy,

The Catalina Sky Survey is archiving its data via the Small Bodies Node of the Planetary Data System (PDS). Part of this process was getting a DOI assigned: 10.26033/80fq-dn90

This can be resolved to lead to our PDS holdings, e.g., via https://dx.doi.org  (Docs accessible at https://sbn.psi.edu/pds/resource/css.html, or follow the breadcrumbs up and down from the DOI anchor.)

It’s been on my list to add the DOI to our FITS headers. Thoughts on best practices? Keyword name(s)? Etc?

Thanks,

Rob
