-  A formal standard is a specification of some practice that is adopted by a recognized standards body. The set of formal standards and set of de facto standards intersect, but are not the same; some formal standards are not very widely used. Nonetheless, because of the community participation and rigor required to formalize the standard we recognize that they merit careful evaluation.

-In the internet age, a standard can be a web-based document that details all the specifications pertaining to a technical matter. To encourage community participation and promote transparency, the LinkedEarth team will lead a '''crowd-sourced peer-reviewed publication''' detailing this standard.

-Pursuant to PAGES policies, authorship will be extremely inclusive and acknowledge all scientific input into the process. Anyone contributing to the discussion on developing standards for paleoclimatology (either during the [[PDS workshop 2016]], on the wiki, or via teleconferences an in-person exchanges) will be invited to the author list.

 == Working Groups ==
 Attendees of the [[PDS workshop 2016]] proposed that archive-centric [[:Category:Working_Group | working groups]] (WGs; self-assembled coalitions of knowledgeable experts) would be best positioned to elaborate and discuss the components of a data standard for their specific sub-field of paleoclimatology. It is also critical to ensure interoperability between standards to enable longitudinal (multiproxy) investigations.
-[[:Category:Working_Group | Working groups]] have been formed and are now being consulted to generate the backbone of a standard, which will be presented to the community at the [http://www.pages-osm.org PAGES OSM meeting] in Zaragoza (May 9-13, 2017).

-One possible way to elaborate a standard is to ask oneself: "What pieces of metadata would I require to reproduce this particular dataset and therefore which one should I provide for my own datasets?" Some of these metadata will be standard across all archives (i.e., geographic coordinates, publication information). Some will be archive (and even observation)-specific. See [[:Category:Marine_Sediment_Working_Group | here]] for the beginning of a discussion on foraminiferal Mg/Ca.

-Other types of basic query include searching for a particular publication, using either the DOI, title, journal, authors, and searching by [[:Category:ProxyArchive_ (L) | archiveType]]. The later is currently used to obtain the maps under each archive category (for example, [[:Category:MarineSediment | marine sediments]]). Enter the queries you'd like to perform, and the metadata required to perform them.
