Interoperability

The GLobal Ocean Data Analysis Project (GLODAP) initiated in 2004 and subsequently updated, has been instrumental in delivering carbon-relevant interior ocean data that support well-quantified estimates of the ocean carbon sink.

OGC RAINBOW is a Web accessible source of information about things (“Concepts”) the OGC defines or that communities ask the OGC to host on their behalf. It applies FAIR principles to the key concepts that underpin interoperability in systems using OGC specifications.

The OntoPortal technology allows anyone to set up a semantic artefact catalogue for a domain/project of interest.

The I-ADOPT Interoperability Framework is a set of guidelines based on a simple non-domain specific ontology that supports the decomposition of complex observable properties into their essential atomic parts represented through the concepts in FAIR terminologies.

The online tool allows data centre and data repository managers to assess the compliance of their web services or digital object with respect to the IVOA standards.

The License Clearance Tool provides technical solutions to address legal aspects in FAIR and ORDM. It addresses the complexity of legal interoperability in scenarios where available IPR options need to be examined for derivative works.

The FAIR-Aware tool provides practical information and resources to (further) develop skills for FAIR data and is meant to incentivise researchers to make their data FAIR. This tool can be used both as a teaching tool and as a resource for researchers and data stewards.

The tool is used to connect the health data sources which can be in various formats (Excel files, CSV files, SQL databases) and migrate data into a HL7 FHIR Repository.

This policy framework proposed a set of 21 elements to consider when formulating data policy for research infrastructures, especially in the photon and neutron (PaN) domain. Although the framework was produced specifically in the PaN context, it is sufficiently general that it is likely to be of value in other fields.
