ABSTRACT
The increasingly multidisciplinary nature of scientific research necessitates a need for Open Data repositories that can archive data in support of publications in scientific journals. Recognising this need, even before GigaScience launched in 2012, GigaDB was already in place and taking data for a year before (making it 11 this year). Since GigaDB launched, there has been a consistent growth in this resource in terms of data volume, data discoverability and data re-use. In this commentary, we provide a retrospective of key changes over the last decade, and the role of Data Curation in enhancing the user experience. Furthermore we explore a much needed emphasis on enabling researchers to interact with and explore datasets prior to data download.
