The Open Science Community Twente (OSCT) and the Digital Competence Centre (DCC) are glad to invite you to the April OSCT-DCC joint event! Dr. Ing. Serkan Girgin, Faculty ITC, Centre of Expertise in Big Geodata, will be our speaker.
How to create and publish FAIR research datasets directly from your research environment?
The FAIR principles require research data to be published with complete metadata and ideally shared at different key milestones during the research. However currently, data publication and sharing happen mostly at the end, and published data mostly lack important supplementary information and metadata limiting its reusability. On the other hand, regular high-quality data publication takes time and requires manual interaction with the data repositories.
Virtual research environments facilitate research data production; however, although they are well connected to some research infrastructure, e.g., code repositories, their interoperability with research data repositories is weak. Open-source fairly toolset aims to bridge this gap by enabling easy research data publication directly from the research environment. The toolset, which includes a JupyterLab extension, a command-line tool, and a Python library, allows quick research data cloning, local data and metadata management, unattended upload of large datasets, and smart synchronization with remote data repositories with minimum effort.
During the talk the fairly toolset will be introduced, and its features will be demonstrated by creating and uploading research datasets to popular research data repositories, such as Zenodo, figshare, and 4TU.ResearchData.
