Metadata The IDRP includes the relevant (searchable) information: Proposal, instruments, people involved… Basic Metadata

Metadata Standard for Nanoscience Data Basic metadata model developed by Science and Technology Facility Council (STFC) Presented at RDA Plenary in Berlin (April 2018) within the Research data needs of the Photon and Neutron Science community IG (https://rd-alliance.org/groups/rdacodata-materials-data- infrastructure-interoperability-ig.html) Follows common metadata standards Defines common terminology and proposal execution workflow in nanoscience

Metadata at IDRP

Local storage NFFA Portal IDRP Local Storage Facilities

Local storage: issues nomad-repository.eu datashare.nffa.eu materialscloud.org

Local storage: issues Difficult for the distributed infrastructure: Different interfaces, no common metadata schema: not totally interoperable Different authentication methods: not easily accessible Not all using global PIDs: not totally findable No common agreement on data types On the other hand: Data in the local storage can be enriched with new domain-specific metadata

Metadata The IDRP includes the relevant (searchable) information: Proposal, instruments, people involved… Instrument information (for reproducibility) Basic Metadata Associated Metadata

Data Analysis NFFA Portal IDRP Local Storage Data Analysis Facilities
