- Open data sharing enables others to reuse results and build on previous findings, to improve efficiencies of the research process, and to drive a faster pace of research and discovery.
- Open Data supports transparency and validation of research. By ensuring that the data behind published research can be reproduced, this leads to a fairer, more robust, and more accountable research landscape.
- Ease of access and ease of discoverability means that there are more opportunities to find and extract knowledge.
- Depositing data in a repository with a permanent identifier such as a DOI allows authors to cite the dataset, allowing authors to gain appropriate credit for their work, and ensures long term preservation of data.
