Meeting Location: Congress C
Meeting objectives
Research Schemas, a proposed extension of schema.org, aims to be a community initiative to promote the use of schema.org and related efforts for research data discoverability and accessibility.
The goal of this meeting is to create a plan proposal to establish "Research Schemas" as a community and as a formal RDA working group expanding on the objectives so far proposed by the RDA DDPIG Schema TF Proposal. During this BoF we will evaluate and discuss what this group should achieve and how. At the end of the BoF we aim to have a draft plan defining the scope, purpose, priorities, responsibilities and timelines, as well as an engagement and communication strategy for the RDA Research Schemas working group.
