In order to comply with the RDA recommendations requirements for Technology Migration (R13) and Migration Verification (R14), ONC developed a Technology Migration Policy to ensure the data infrastructure ensures sustainable resolution of the dynamic dataset and subset citations. 

Dataset Collections

ONC now provides the service of curating dataset collections to users upon request. This functionality would be intended to serve users who download data that spans several datasets, i.e., across multiple deployments. It would allow users to cite the aggregated dataset instead of several singular datasets. For more information on this process and to request a dataset collection please see Collections

Additionally, ONC is engaged with the Make Data Count Project, which focuses on identifying how best to track metrics related to data. Their intent is to learn whether metrics that currently relate to other research outputs, such as journal articles, are appropriate for datasets as well. ONC is interested in tracking the use of our data in meaningful ways for our data partners and funders, as well as improving our support and services. Finally, ONC is considering the feasibility of adding an aggregation or 'collections' option for datasets. This functionality would be intended to serve users who download data that spans several datasets, e.g. across multiple deployments. It would allow users to cite the aggregated dataset instead of several singular datasets. This feature is still in preliminary discussion.
