[MGI30-04] Referencing of instruments by means of standardized persistent identifications

The referencing of scientific publications by means of persistent identifiers (e.g. DOIs) has long been the practice and is well established in the scientific world. The ongoing digitization and automation of research processes has led to new requirements for referencing additional objects. In addition to research data, there is an increasing need to uniquely reference scientific instruments. For the evaluation of the data it is often of great importance how and with which instrument it was collected. If the instrument and its most important metadata are referenced in the research process, this information can be included in the analysis. The Research Data Alliance (RDA) Persistent Identification of Instruments (PIDINST) Working Group has taken up the challenges and developed a recommendation for a scheme for referencing. The working group included various representatives from different scientific fields and with sometimes very different use cases. In the presentation, the results of the PIDINST RDA working group will be presented and illustrated by two use cases. The scheme, as a result of the working group, will be explained. By means of the use cases it will be shown how the schema can be registered and used in the creation of persistent identifiers. At the end, examples of such instrument PIDs created using the scheme are shown.
