World of rotifers on blockchain

The idea of open data has been highlighted as very important for the advancement of research, especially in environmental science, climate change studies, and biology. However, there are still many concerns about publishing data as open data, such as loss of credit. While there are many data archives and repositories on the Internet, data are mostly scattered, and the use of technical innovations in data sharing still needs improvement. We propose a customised blockchain solution based on both permissioned and permissionless blockchain implementations to acquire, match, and harmonise Rotifer datasets in an immutable open data format for secure and trusted access and analysis. The proposed system supports intuitive metadata constructs for Rotifer datasets bound to a predefined model that provides flexibility and consistency for data consumers. The goal is to create a decentralised system for voluntary collection of rotifer metadata with a standardised licence for attribution and authorship that allows data users, data providers, and data managers to easily access and reuse the data. The approach can also be applied to other biology and environmental data, which can foster AI development by incorporating metadata into the blockchain so that it can detect patterns, assess changes, or suggest actions to restore the object under study.
