Based on the kick-off BoF, the group aims to prioritise the challenges to be addressed to enable FAIR and interoperable digital twins.
The prioritised challenges will guide the drafting of the charter, aligning it with key global initiatives like the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Decade of Ocean Science, or the European Green Deal addressing grand challenges such as climate change.

– Introduction: group status and Charter planning
– Lightning talks on projects, initiatives and research infrastructures and their approach to implementing the FAIR principles and aspects of interoperability, technical and otherwise – aiming for global representation
– Towards a digital twin commons – Discussion on common and diverse elements of FAIR and interoperability when researching Earth System components including climate, biodiversity, ocean and marine including approaches and best practices on data types and structures, semantic interoperability, vocabulary mapping and the broader management of persistent linking and persistent identifiers, common metadata structure, and workflow management.
– Conclusions and next steps for group and Charter
