Clearing some of the highest FAIR hurdles: PIDs, Metadata, and Semantic Interoperability for Data Stewards and Service providers
Date: 
21 January 2021
Location: 
Virtual

The FAIRsFAIR Task 2.1 aims at enabling sustainable technical implementation of the FAIR principles on a broad level and improving understanding of the current variety in FAIR concepts. The first iteration of three reports on the state of FAIR in the European scientific data ecosystem was published in late 2019. 

The goal of this webinar is to share and discuss the content presented in the second report "D2.4 2nd Report on FAIR requirements for persistence and interoperability" which contains an explanatory guide on how to choose the right techniques for FAIR data. The aim is to share knowledge on how data stewards and service providers can promote FAIR with PIDs, semantic interoperability and metadata.

This webinar is specifically intended for data stewards and service providers.
