Fair and Data Management:

Fundamentals of Scientific Metadata for Energy

Learn the importance of standardized metadata for making your research findable and reusable. This course includes a practical session on registering metadata using the Open Energy Platform.

This course is offered by HMC in cooperation with HIDA

HMC

The Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC) promotes the qualitative enrichment of research data by means of metadata – and implements this approach across the whole organization.

HMC develops and implements novel concepts and technologies for a sustainable handling of research data through high-quality metadata. Its main goal is to make the depth and breadth of research data produced by Helmholtz Centres findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) for the whole science community.

The course shows how important it is to annotate your data with standardized metadata to make it findable and reusable, thereby increasing the reach and impact of your research.

The course also provides a practical example of registering metadata on the Open Energy Platform, which defines its own standards and ontology.

Learning goals

By the end of the course, you will be able to annotate your data within the Open Energy Platform using the OEMetaString standard.
