Completed catalogue assessment
- Eligibility decision
- Include · Include
- Assessment date
- 28 September 2026
- Decision reason
- The original DOI resolves to a real public lithological dataset, but its deposited identity is a 0.5-degree gridded v1.0 product. The candidate ZIP endpoint redirects to the publisher-linked AWI archive and can be retained with that corrected identity; exclude the unsupported codebook path.
- Metadata corrections
- ["Correct title to Global Lithological Map Database v1.0 (gridded to 0.5 degrees spatial resolution), Hartmann and Moosdorf (2012); remove v1.1/high-resolution/GeoPackage claims."]
