Editorial commentary
Re3data (re3data.org) was launched in 2012 and is maintained by KIT, GFZ, and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin in partnership with DataCite. Each repository entry carries metadata about institution, country, content type, discipline, access conditions, certifications, PID systems used, API availability, and language coverage. The registry is referenced by funders and journals when articulating deposit policy (‘deposit in a re3data-listed repository’), and by researchers when choosing a repository.
