GORC IG: Typology and Definitions

By Bridget Walker

The Global Open Research Commons is an Interest Group within the Research Data Alliance. The IG is working to reach a shared understanding of what a “Commons” is in the research data space; what functionality, coverage and characteristics does such an initiative require and how this can be coordinated at a global level.

Commons: A global trusted ecosystem that provides seamless access to high quality interoperable research outputs and services.

Strapline: Digital research resources for the common good.

One of the outputs of the IG is a Typology of the essential elements in a Commons.

In developing this typology, the IG identified the need to also provide a set of definitions for each of the typology elements. This document is the formal statement of this typology with the associated definitions.
