How do I share my data?

The best way to share is to deposit your data with a recognized repository where it will be made available and its use supported. Things to consider when choosing a repository:

• Are there requirements from a project funder, journal editor, your university, or others to share in a specific place?
• Where will people look for data like yours?
• Does the repository accept and disseminate both public- and restricted-use data (if applicable)?
• Will your data be well documented and easily found using the search tools on the site?
• Does the repository preserve the data and migrate it as technology changes, so it will be usable for the foreseeable future?
