There are two ways to do it:

Option 2: If you already have a project or a group on the GeoHub, you can first upload the dataset to the project or create a new project under your group by clicking on "Project" at the left hand side bar of the group, then click “Add Project” and upload the dataset. After that, click on “Publications” at the left hand side bar on the project page and follow the directions.
