Impact: Ensures researchers apply a common core data model when organising their data and thus making data accessible and re-usable Recommendation package DOI: doi.org/10.15497/06825049-8CA4-40BD-BCAF-DE9F0EA2FADF Citation: Berg-Cross, Gary, Ritz, Raphael, Wittenburg, Peter (2015): Data Foundation and Terminology Work Group Products. DOI: 10.15497/06825049-8CA4-40BD-BCAFDE9F0EA2FADF Analysis and Synthesis of Data Management Terms
Based on a variety of data models and use cases presented by experts coming from different disciplines and 120 interviews and interactions with different scientists and scientific departments, the DFT group has produced 8 inter-related reports and defined a number of simple definitions for digital data in a registered domain based on an agreed conceptualization. A summary of the core terms and the underlying model can be found in the first document called “Core Terms and Model”. This can also be used to cite the work.
