Hack idea: repository selection tool

overview

Researchers with different data types are currently presented with a number of different repositories. While manual selection resources such as Springer Nature's recommended repository list allow for appropriate repository selection, better tools could be developed to enable researchers to get their data into the right repository. Potentially an initial data mine of data types against repositories, journals, subjects areas could power this.
