ORCID Public Data File schema explorer in Google Big Query

ORCID, which stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID, is a free, unique, persistent identifier (PID) for individuals to use as they engage in research, scholarship, and innovation activities. ORCID publishes the Public Data File annually, at no cost, to ensure broad access to public ORCID data. However, because the Public Data File is so large, it can be difficult to work with, inhibiting exploratory analysis.

ORCID member Digital Science is generously hosting the 2024 Public Data File on Google Big Query, making the Public Data File easily available for exploration and analysis.
