Summary

The Research Data Alliance – CODATA Interest Group on Legal Interoperability of Research Data (RDA-CODATA IG on Legal Interoperability), addresses and promotes the following objectives:

1)  Define legal interoperability of research data and articulate why it is important for data interoperability and reuse.

2)  Document and analyze case studies in the areas of geoscience, biodiversity research, social sciences, and humanities of legal interoperability issues and solutions in interdisciplinary and international contexts.

3)  Develop and publish core principles and guidelines of best practices through which legal interoperability can be achieved, and link to related information resources online.

4)  Work with key stakeholder groups to get the core principles and guidelines of best practices adopted.

5)  Generally promote better understanding and greater use by the stakeholder groups in the research community of the agreed approaches to legal interoperability of research data, focused on highlighting and enabling better integration and reuse of such data.

 

The RDA-CODATA IG on Legal Interoperatbility will hold a three-session meeting at the 3rd RDA Plenary meeting in Dublin in March 2014. The first two back-to-back sessions will be focused on getting preliminary reports on eight case studies and discussing them. A third session will review other activities of the IG and plan next steps to be accomplished by the 4th RDA Plenary meeting in September.
