Publishing Fine-Grained Standardized Metadata – Lessons Learned from Three Research Data Centers

Publikationsdetails

ABSTRACT
FAIRness of research data largely depends on the availability of rich and standardized metadata. While such metadata is commonly available at the study level, fine-grained metadata, especially for tabular scientific data, is often lacking (Wenzig/Han 2024). In a project funded by  KonsortSWD-NFDI4Society, three research data centers (SOEP, LIfBi, and DZHW) investigate what is required to convert existing metadata into a standardized format and publish it using a common protocol.
