Abstract

We present the update process of a dataset using persistent identifiers (PIDs). The dataset is available in two different variants: for download and via an online web interface. During the update process, we had to fundamentally rethink as to how we wanted to use PIDs and version numbering. We will also reflect on how to effectively use PID assignment in case of minor changes in the large dataset. We discuss the roles of different types of PIDs, the role of metadata, and access locations.
