Open access materials data in NOMAD

The NOMAD (Novel Materials Discovery) Repository and Archive is a repository specialized in materials science. It distributes both raw and processed data under a Creative Commons license.
The background is white and the resolution is high
  • NOMAD has a specific metadata standard developed particularly for computational sciences
  • NOMAD has a well-developed interface suitable and understandable for materials scientists
  • NOMAD has an open search interface that does not require users to register or log in
  • Creating an account enables uploading your own data
  • Upon uploading, the system automatically extracts metadata from the input and output data
  • Embargo period can be set to up to three years, the data is guaranteed to be stored for at least ten years
  • Persistent identifiers (DOI, Digital Object Identifier) are assigned for the data
