Excel spreadsheet that Peter W sent round to TAB. Dated 29 Sep 2015. |
TAB undertook a thematic clustering activity 2014-2015. The clustering chosen was along 2 dimensions. Beth sent a questionnaire to the chairs and got input from about 40% of them. Rough map produced. |

|
Following the discussion on the connection between technical/generic groups and disciplinary groups at the 2016 Tokyo TAB/Chairs meeting, TAB set up a "Landscape Overview Group" with two subgroups, one to assess that topic and the other one to work on the connection between groups with an infrastructure orientation (e.g. libraries, archives, IT services) and those with a "functional" point of view (e.g. publishing, DMP, VRE, reproductibility). The TAB/LOG is chaired by Steve Diggs. New visualisations presented at 9th Collaboration meeting, Vienna, June 2018 |
TAB folksonomy keyword activity |

A categorization scheme for RDA Working Groups and Interest Groups |
Rebecca Koskela |
Ongoing |
A categorization scheme for RDA Working Groups and Interest Groups based on core goals around data sharing, reuse, and interoperability was presented at the TAB/Chairs meeting during Plenary 11 in Berlin. The categorization is intended to address the following issues:
The results of the survey will be analyzed and the initial results made available in dynamic network graph visualization. This analysis will be used to inform other road mapping exercises. |
