Implementing FAIR data principles requires evolving research data services. This involves addressing challenges and prioritizing recommendations for data infrastructures to support the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) and foster a FAIR data ecosystem.
Area of Science:
- Data Science
- Research Infrastructure
- Open Science
Background:
- Growing adoption of FAIR data principles necessitates new research data services.
- Existing policies and practices create novel demands on data infrastructures.
- The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) initiative requires robust data support.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify common challenges and priorities in implementing FAIR data principles.
- To propose recommendations for evolving data infrastructures to support FAIR data.
- To inform the development of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
Main Methods:
- Workshops involving stakeholders from FAIRsFAIR, RDA Europe, OpenAIRE, EOSC-hub, and FREYA projects.
- Exploration, discussion, and formulation of recommendations among the scientific community.
- Prioritization of recommendations based on perceived urgency by different stakeholder groups.
Main Results:
- A comprehensive overview of current challenges and priorities in FAIR data implementation.
- A set of actionable recommendations covering certification, infrastructure, stewardship, costs, rewards, collaboration, training, support, and data management.
- Identification of action owners and suggested actions for improving FAIR data ecosystems.
Conclusions:
- Data infrastructures must evolve and collaborate to effectively support FAIR data principles.
- Community-driven recommendations are crucial for sharpening the roadmap toward a FAIR data ecosystem.
- Addressing identified challenges will accelerate the development and adoption of FAIR data practices within EOSC.
