Description: This publication includes the metadata schema and documentation for the registration of International Generic Sample Numbers (IGSN) by GFZ Data Services between 2015 and 2024. The IGSN schema definitions included here give an overview of the existing elements for sample description used in the different data centres managed by the IGSN Agent GFZ Data Services. To date, GFZ Data Services organises their IGSN collections according to different projects or research groups which are displayed as different datacentres in the catalogue (https://dataservices.gfz-potsdam.de/igsn-new/). The modular IGSN metadata schema, developed by IGSN e.V., formed the basis for the registration of IGSN sample descriptions. Until 2022, the following three modules were used: IGSN Registration Metadata Schema: mandatory metadata properties required for the IGSN registration (Handle Server) IGSN Descriptive Metadata Schema: generic description of a specimen’s core elements as defined by IGSN e.V. These elements were intended to represent the common metadata kernel for all IGSN allocating agents. IGSN Supplemental Metadata Schema: additional, sample-specific metadata elements that can be individually developed by IGSN Allocating Agents. This schema represents a further development of the IGSN metadata schema originally developed by System for Earth Sample Registration (SESAR², www.geosamples.org) in the framework of the IGSN Organisation (IGSN e.V.) with specific additions for the GFZ use case. It was used for IGSN registrations since 2015. As part of the project "FAIR Workflows to establish IGSN for Samples in the Helmholtz Association" (FAIR WISH), funded by the Initiative and Networking Fund of the Helmholtz Association (Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration HMC). these schemes were secured and the documentation for the registration metadata, descriptive metadata documentation was completed.
