Enabling Global FAIR Data: WorldFAIR Investment Recommendations for Research Infrastructures
Monday 2 December, 1:00 – 5:00pm, Studio 4 at the W Brisbane
Delivery format: Hybrid
Event Description
Research Infrastructures now play a crucial role in providing data products that support interdisciplinary research and address global challenges through the integration and analysis of diverse data. The WorldFAIR project demonstrates that a fundamental shift from the current bibliographic approach to data stewardship to a data engineering approach is required.
In addition to making policy recommendations that call for this fundamental shift, WorldFAIR published the first part of the Cross-Domain Interoperability Framework (CDIF). The CDIF is an emerging set of guidelines around domain-agnostic standards for supporting the implementation of interoperability and reusability of FAIR data, especially across domain- and institutional boundaries. CDIF identifies a set of functional requirements and makes recommendations for addressing these based on widely used and emerging standards.
In this session, we will present the outcomes of the WorldFAIR project, discuss its continuation in a broad set of aligned projects and address how Research Infrastructures can prepare data to better meet communities’ research needs. We will explore the drivers behind this new role, the challenges and opportunities it presents, and the necessary investments in infrastructure, technology, standards, and capacities to support these developments. Most importantly past, present and potential case studies will present their work and discuss the implications for research infrastructures.
Speakers:
Simon Hodson (ISC CODATA), WorldFAIR+ and the Cross-Domain Interoperability Framework
Tim Rawling (AuScope Ltd) Combining Data Across the Spheres
Lesley Wyborn (AuScope Ltd) FAIR and OneGeochemistry
Adrian Burton (ARDC), People Research Data Commons
And more to be confirmed soon
