Whether there is a scheme to uniquely identify the digital resource
metricThe uniqueness of an identifier is a necessary condition to unambiguously refer that resource, and that resource alone. Otherwise, an identifier shared by multiple resources will confound efforts to describe that resource, or to use the identifier to retrieve it. Examples of identifier schemes include, but are not limited to URN, IRI, DOI, Handle, trustyURI, LSID, etc. For an in-depth understanding of the issues around identifiers, please see http://dx.plos.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.2001414 An identifier scheme is valid if and only if it is described in a repository that can register and present such identifier schemes (e.g. fairsharing.org). Information about the identifier scheme must be presented with a machine-readable document containing the FM1 attribute with the URL to where the scheme is described. see specification for implementation.
