How to upload

The IEMAP’s REST API needs a metadata JSON file to complete the upload. In this section, we describe how to upload data of a computing or experimental process on the IEMAP database. The steps are two:

1. Create metadata

2. Upload metadata and data files

Create metadata

The IEMAP’s REST API only accepts the metadata with a specific JSON format, so you need to map data into IEMAP’s JSON structure. Each metadata has to contain the information of one single computing or experimental process. Below is a list of the core metadata fields supported by IEMAP:

• project , related project (e.g. Battery for Energy, Solar Panel or Electrolyzers)

• process , info of the computing or experimental process (code or instrument, method, …)

• material , info of material (formula, its structure)

• parameters , list of parameters, input of the process

• properties , list of properties, output of the process

To simplify, a summary document was created (fields supported).

Note

See here to know the fields list.

We provide two process examples, one computational and one experimental:

• computational process data

• experimental process data

Upload (meta)data files

Once the metadata JSON file is created, you can upload (meta)data related to one computing or experimental process. There are two modes to upload the metadata and data files:

1. via Web Interface

2. via REST API

Note

The registration is required. Follow the guide video (main page) if you didn’t already.
