For a list of books still to be added, see the Issues.
All datasets are welcome, however, not well documented, incomplete and duplicate datasets might be removed.
The format for adding bibliography entries is:
## [Name of the dataset]
[Brief description of the dataset]
Note: mention the data licenses and if there the use is restricted in any way
[Publication / how to cite]
[Project] - link to project homepage / blog
[Unique locations] - number of unique spatial locations
If you have an addition or correction, make changes to the Rmd's and make pull-request.
Ideally, all datasets including various versions should come with a DOI. Don't have a DOI yet, please upload and register your dataset via https://zenodo.org or similar.
Commercial datasets can be also listed, however promotional materials, commercial offers and similar will be removed.
