What is the MDCS? How do I get access to the MDCS? What are some of the activities I can do on the MDCS? Can I use MDCS using a RESTful API? How do I get help with questions? How do I contact the MDCS administrator for questions?
The MDCS allows for the curation of materials data into a repository using predefined templates. The system also allows for browsing and exploring of the materials data using the predefined templates as well.
An individual may make a request to access MDCS using the online request form. Once the MDCS administrator accepts the account request, the user is notified that the account is created with the appropriate credentials.
A user can enter and curate materials data, search and explore materials data, and perform a federation of queries across several MDCS instances.
Yes, MDCS supports RESTful APIs. The MDCS REST-based APIs allow the integration with other Web services, data entry, query, and retrieval. The RESTful API documentation can be accessed here.
