Establish metadata formats for specific kinds of providers (publication repositories, data repositories, software repositories, and CRIS systems)
Recommend exchange protocols for accessing metadata (OAI-PMH, ResourceSync, ...)
Making scientific products discoverable by adopting common guidelines for metadata
Make the EGI DataHub, EGI AppDB, B2SAFE compliant to guidelines
Foster the adoption of machine-consumable Data Management Plan Tools
EUDAT-OpenAIRE DMP tool

Improve quality of annotations via existing ontologies via the integration of B2NOTE with OpenAIRE and EOSC-hub services
Promote EUDAT B2FIND as OpenAIRE Metadata Catalogue for Research Data from communities
Synchronise community definitions across EOSC-hub services and OpenAIRE
Promote EGI AppDB as OpenAIRE Metadata Catalogue for Software and Virtual Appliances
Define a common metadata standard for describing Software and Virtual Appliances
Provide seamless access from EGI compute clouds to datasets stored in data repositories (e.g. OpenAIRE Zenodo, EUDAT B2SHARE, EGI DataHub, ...)

8. 2. Sharing and Accessing Scientific Products in EOSC (2/2)
Use Brokering services for scholarly communication
Services in scope: OpenAIRE Brokering Services and integration with EGI DataHub, EGI AppDB, EUDAT B2FIND, B2SHARE and B2SAFE
Repositories for (long tail of science) communities which are missing thematic repositories
OpenAIRE Zenodo as Catch-All Repository for individual researchers
EUDAT B2SHARE and EGI DataHub for community based thematic repositories

9. 3. Towards an OS-oriented Scientific Impact
Standardize usage statistics to enable assessment of research impact
Standardize usage statistic metrics across OpenAIRE and EOSC-hub
Collaborate with RDA (e.g. Make Data Count BoF working group)
Promote common guidelines to and across communities
Take EC rules and GDPR regulations into account
Enable the collection/aggregation of usage stats from content providers
Adopt OpenAIRE and EOSC-hub services for collecting user statistics, services in scope:
EGI: Accounting System, AppDB
EUDAT: DPMT, B2SHARE, B2FIND, B2SAFE
Adopt OpenAIRE Usage Stats Services to collect user stats for all products of science
e.g. literature, datasets, software, research objects
Integrating with EOSC-hub services for usage statistics/metrics
This activity is crucial to enable definition of new citation/quality indexes for science and come up with Open Science-flavoured research impact.

10. 3. Enabling Services in support of EOSC
Enable single sign-on across scientific services
Integration of OpenAIRE and EOSC-hub AAI to provide seamless access to scientific services. Work with Geant/AARC
Generation of PIDs for long-tail of science sources of scientific products
Integrate EUDAT B2HANDLE service with OpenAIRE aggregation service for automatic PID generation on data sources and services without registered PIDs
Sensitive Data Services
Pilot OpenAIRE Amnesia Service (service for data anonymization) with EOSC- hub Sensitive Data Services
