Topic: custom metadata blocks for research imaging?

Hello community, one of our stewards is interested in custom metadata blocks for research imagining data. I've browsed Julian's dataset of custom metadata blocks but it contains zips from each installation.

Does anyone have such a custom metadata block for initial reference, and/or interest in (co-)creating one?

Heya Don. The newest version of that dataset is at https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/RMAGSH and has info collected from each installation in August 2025. Maybe there's relevant info in that dataset?

The newer dataset from Aug 2026, and the one you found from 2022, have a file named metadatablocks_from_most_known_dataverse_installations.tab that lists the names and other info about metadata blocks from the Dataverse installations.
