Main functionalities of Maggot split into 3 parts: creation, sharing, and dissemination. (A) First, producing a document with metadata sets of data within a collective of people, thus allowing users to (i) answer certain questions of the DMP concerning data organization, documentation, storage, and sharing in the data storage space and (ii) meet certain data and metadata requirements, listed, for example, by Open Research Europe in accordance with FAIR principles. (B) Next, searching for datasets by their metadata. Here, the descriptive metadata thus produced can be associated with the corresponding data directly in the storage space, making it possible to perform a search on the metadata to find 1 or more sets of data. Only high-level metadata are accessible by default. (C) Finally, publishing the high-level metadata of the datasets, as well as their data files, in a European-approved repository, with the possibility either to directly harvest the metadata via the OAI-PMH protocol or to export the associated metadata with their semantic context for full interoperability.
