We invite everybody to contribute to this challenge by providing data sets to be uploaded to a variety of bioimaging repositories. Each participant should know the data well (=good annotations) and submit the same data set to at least two different databases listed here.
The aims of this challenge are: (i) to learn which issues you encounter when uploading data, (ii) how to prepare yourself / your data better for this process, e.g. which metadata / data formats are required, (iii) have examplary data sets for reuse / re-analysis e.g. via galaxy and for testing new tools and (iv) get ready for the "close to real life" repo-challenge 2.0.
We ask each participant to provide an overview in the table below which data sets and repos will be used. In case you need help from a data steward please write to the helpdesk. In addition, a questionnaire will be provided (under construction, link will follow) to share the expierence. A short summary about this challenge is also available on zenodo.
