[Esip-preserve] Assigning DOIs to data set versions?

[Paul Lemieux - NOAA Affiliate]

Matt,

NCEI does assign DOIs to major dataset versions. See the following example
dataset landing pages below. Each version is considered a new collection
and receives a new collection metadata record and DOI.

NOAA Climate Data Record (CDR) of AVHRR Surface Reflectance, Version 4
(Version Superseded)
https://doi.org/10.7289/V5TM782M
NOAA Climate Data Record (CDR) of AVHRR Surface Reflectance, Version 5
https://doi.org/10.7289/V53776Z4

Best,
