ClearFlo - Clean air for London
Conditions of data access and use
Access to, and use of, ClearFlo data is subject to the following conditions:
- Access to all ClearFlo data submitted to BADC will be restricted to ClearfLO participants for two years following
the data collection unless this is prohibited under EIC regulations or the embargo waived by the data provider. After this time it will be released into the public domain.
This embargo is to allow the PI and co-workers to exploit it in the first instance. The metadata will NOT be embargoed, allowing the wider community to be aware of work being carried out under ClearFlo.
- Whilst the data are restricted from the public domain, no data should be transferred to a third party without the originator's consent.
- Whilst the data are restricted from the public domain, all investigators have the right to refuse that their work, whether measurement or calculation, be used in a publication or presentation prior to the investigators' own publication of that work.
- If measurements or model results from other groups within the programme are used in a ClearfLO participant's publication during or after the programme, joint authorship must be offered.
- Users of ClearFlo data are responsible for ensuring that the data used in publications are the best available at the time.
- In all cases where the data are used in a presentation or publication, an acknowledgement must be given: for example, "Data from ClearfLO, provided via BADC."
- Information submitted in application for access to the data will be made available to the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and its delegated authorities, i.e. the NERC Earth Observation Data Centre and the British Atmospheric Data Centre (BADC) and their host organisation, the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) for the purposes of tracking data usage and of improving the service.
In the event of dispute, the final decision rests with the ClearFlo Project Executive Board.
I agree to abide by the terms and conditions for usage
of ClearFlo - Clean air for London data as stated above.
