Meeting objectives

Agricultural research data often has various controls, sensitivity, and stakeholders, necessitating technical solutions to establish which parties have access and trust that the data is unadulterated by other parties.

In this session, we want to start exploring relevant use cases and existing and potential approaches to address this problem, with the aim of creating an RDA WG with other interested parties from various regions, and of recruiting more active group members to help us shape and drive the group, should there be interest from the RDA community.
