RDA TIGER is pleased to announce the second in a series of webinars on cross-fertilisation and knowledge-sharing between RDA Working Groups across different domains. The series will consist of three thematically focussed webinars, allowing WGs to share their work with peers and identify shared challenges and opportunities for further collaboration.
We’re inviting anyone with an interest in the specific activities of RDA Working Groups, in the topics and themes to be discussed, or in the planned outcomes of these Working Groups to join us for this series, where there will be an opportunity to ask about any aspects of the WGs’ activities.
Webinar #2 – (Meta)Data Standards
The first of the series will take place on Wednesday 4th December at 09:30 UTC and will focus on the theme of ‘(Meta)Data Standards’. Presenting at the webinar will be the co-chairs of the FAIRification of Genomic Annotations, Wind Energy Community Standards, Multi-Omics Metadata Standards Integration, and the Harmonised terminologies and schemas for FAIR data in materials science and related domains Working Groups.
- The Multi-Omics Metadata Standards Ingegration (MOMSI) WG aims to address the challenges of effectively managing and integrating multi-omics data by creating a matrix of identified reporting guidelines and standards, to be deployed across different domain technologies
- The goal of the Wind Energy Community Standards WG is to reduce data management overhead within and between organisations working with wind energy. This will be done by creating a recommendation , which will then be used to create a wind energy FAIR Implementation Profile (FIP). FIP will give the scientific and research communities the opportunity to express their choices of standards, technologies, tools and procedures by which they fulfil the FAIR principles.
- The FAIRification of Genomic Annotations Working Group (WG) will focus on the challenges of harmonising metadata and software solutions to improve the discovery and reuse of publicly available “genomic annotation” data.
Future instalments of the series will take place in December 2024 on the topic of FAIR/CARE/TRUST Principles Adoption. Keep an eye on the RDA events page and our social media channels for updates on these.
