description This chapter proposes a digital provenance system to address the urgent need for a reconceptualization of provenance recording practices in the digital age. Such a system will lay the foundation for transforming provenance from a means to individual redress to a collective tool of accountability. Current provenance cataloguing is heterogeneous, often biased, and not machine-readable. Provenance information is thus scientifically unreliable and difficult to access. This chapter outlines technological and ethical data standards and highlights the need for definitive provenance writing rules, all of which will make provenance facts transparent and verifiable going forward. It advocates a linked open data standard as the technological framework for the proposed digital provenance system.
