 ## Key features
 
-**Data Catalogue** - The data catalogue in FAIRDOM-SEEK includes raw Datasets, [Standard Operating Procedures(SOPs)](https://fairdomhub.org/sops), [Models](https://fairdomhub.org/models), [Publications](https://fairdomhub.org/publications) and [Presentations](https://fairdomhub.org/presentations). All data are grouped by projects, and associated with the researchers who produced them. In order to encourage sharing of data we allow researchers flexibility in the formats they upload and share their data in. This means data formats in the FAIRDOM-SEEK catalogue can vary. We do offer a set of “best practice” guidelines for researchers who want to make their data available and usable to the widest possible audience.

 Most common formats allow viewing within the browser, without a download, with additional enhanced features for spreadsheets and SBML models.
+Multiple data files can be registered at once by uploading a zip file. 
 
 All data and information added to FAIRDOM-SEEK is searchable using key-words.
 
-**Versioning** - All data is stored using versioning, selectable privacy, and static URLs. Versioning and privacy settings ensure that you can share your most recent data, with who you choose. Static URLs ensure that you can be credited directly for all shared work.

+Individual versions can have their visibility controlled, allowing past versions to be completely hidden if desired.
 
-**Model simulation and annotation** - if models follow the [SBML standard](http://sbml.org/), they can be simulated from within FAIRDOM-SEEK.

+[COPASI](http://copasi.org/) models can be interpretated and manipulated directly from the browser. 
+[Morpheus](https://morpheus.gitlab.io/) modesls can be simulated directly from the browser.
 
-**Access Control** - Data will go through a research lifecycle between collection and publication. In a competitive academic environment it is important that the data can be shared with collaborators, and then the wider community at appropriate points within the life-cycle. FAIRDOM-SEEK allows users to keep their uploaded data entirely private, to share between individuals, then across entire projects, until eventually making it public upon publication.

-**People index** - FAIRDOM-SEEK contains an [index of people](https://fairdomhub.org/people) where users can browse, or keyword-search, profiles of the projects, groups and people that contribute to the data on the site. People can describe their areas of expertise, which allows other users to quickly identify the right people to approach regarding specialist enquiries and collaboration proposals.

+Extra identifying information, such ORCID and affiliation, can be added for each creator, even if they are not registered in FAIRDOM-SEEK.
 
-**Samples** - FAIRDOM-SEEK has a flexible samples framework that allows users to generate templates for sample metadata. Samples can be data, or laboratory samples. The framework integrates with Rightfield sheets, so that semantically-enhanced title sheets can be included with the data. The default Rightfield sheet uses the JERM and allows automatic generation and linking of the data files to an assay.

+Sample attributes can be limited to controlled vocabularies backed by an ontology.
+
+**Extended Metadata** – FAIRDOM-SEEK allows items to be customized with additional typed metadata, similar to samples, and was used to support [MIAPPE](https://www.miappe.org/).
+Extended Metadata can be nested, i.e one Extended Metadata type definition can include a reference to another, and these will be nested together in a single form.
 
 **ISA and Interlinking** – Data in FAIRDOM-SEEK gain increased value and usability when they are described within the context of an experimental process. 
 Multiple experiments will be carried out as part of a single Study, and that study may be part of a wider overall funded Investigation.
