DOIga

DOIga is a tool designed to help researchers manage and discover digital object identifiers (DOIs). It provides a centralized platform for creating, registering, and querying DOIs, which are persistent identifiers used to uniquely identify digital resources such as research papers, datasets, and software. By using DOIs, researchers can ensure that their work remains discoverable and accessible over time, even if the underlying location of the resource changes.

The DOIga system aims to simplify the process of DOI management for individuals and institutions. It offers features that allow users to generate new DOIs, link them to specific content, and track their usage. This can be particularly beneficial for organizations that produce a large volume of digital research outputs. The tool also facilitates the discovery of existing DOIs, enabling users to find and access relevant research more efficiently.

In essence, DOIga acts as an intermediary, streamlining the interaction between researchers and the broader DOI infrastructure. It supports the principles of FAIR data, making research outputs Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. By promoting the consistent use of DOIs, DOIga contributes to the transparency and reproducibility of scientific research. The development and maintenance of such tools are crucial for the advancement of open science practices.
