This use case outlines potential user requirements and technical development considerations for a proposed dashboard tool monitoring compliance rates with regard to funder policies on Open Access (OA). This proposed dashboard, as part of its wider remit, would also help track various outputs and payments as funded research progresses through stages towards OA publication.

Proposed deposit uptake monitor

This use case outlines potential user requirements and technical development considerations for a proposed deposit uptake monitoring tool, designed to track deposit rates of research publications into Institutional Repositories (IRs). This proposed tool would be designed to distinguish between automated and manual deposit procedures, with capability of reporting the rate of manually ingested deposits by authors or supporting services versus the rate of automated (RJ Broker) deposits via machine-to-machine transfers.
