[open-science] Evaluation of open data portals in the academic space

[Adi Eyal]

Hi All

I am new to this list and was hoping for input on open science data
portals. What features would you expect from a good open data portal
in the academic space. Of course the usual machine readable, data in
bulk, open data licensed requirements are crucial but are there any
others that need to be considered.

Also, any examples of good portals would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Adi
