Implementing FAIR data and services in the European Open Science Cloud
Supporting the implementation phase of the European Open Science Cloud, the EU-funded FAIR-IMPACT project is designed to optimise cross-collaboration and support in the adoption of the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) principles. Operating across scientific communities at European, national and institutional levels, FAIR-IMPACT focuses on persistent identifiers (PIDs), metadata, ontologies, metrics, certification and interoperability. FAIR-IMPACT will identify practices, policies, tools and technical specifications to guide researchers, repository managers, research performing organisations, policymakers and citizen scientists towards a FAIR data management cycle. Starting with real-life use cases on social sciences and humanities, photon and neutron sciences, life sciences and agri-food and environmental sciences, the project will support further adoption and implementation with cascading grants, in-kind contributions and harmonisation efforts.
