The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) aims to provide by 2020 a virtual repository to access data from publicly funded research. The EOSCpilot is a two year project to support the first phase of development of EOSC. The EOSCpilot data interoperability task aims to establish principles, propose recommendations and demonstrate how FAIR data hosted by domain specific data repositories can be exposed to EOSC to be used and reused by EOSC services and users. This work relies on EOSCpilot use cases, data resources from domain specific research infrastructures and requirements from e-infrastructures services. In this workshop we will review data models used to describe datasets and data catalogues as well as requirements of infrastructure services dependent on datasets. The workshop will be focus on understanding, testing and evaluating existing technologies to expose and facilitate the integration of dataset metadata.

Objectives

Day 1

• Get an update of the EOSCpilot project and the work of the data interoperability task
• Review use cases and metadata models describing dataset catalogues and datasets
• Review e-infrastructure requirements for services working with datasets
• Propose key minimum properties to expose and find dataset metadata

Day 2

• Evaluate methods and technologies to expose data catalogues and datasets metadata

Meeting is limited to 35 attandees. Registration is on first come first serve basis.
