| Popis: | Metadata is one of the key elements in making data FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) but currently across the fusion community there is not a widely adopted standard which would allow easy cross site discovery of data of interest, largely due to the presence of long standing existing practices. This document presents a proposed metadata model to overcome this issue. This model has been built based on existing schemas previously designed to support the fusion community with the involvement of a wide range of stakeholders from across the European Fusion community. To support ‘open data’ and ease discovery for non community users we have also adopted some elements of Dublin Core Elements, which also allow us to some very basic provenance tracking of versions. A full provenance model will be incorporated in a later deliverable. While as a project we are not recommending sites change their existing practices of even adopt this schema, we propose to aggregate metadata from sites and convert it to this schema to allow for simpler cross site discovery and access, something which is currently impossible to do. In conclusion we find that the use of the Summary IDS which has been co-developed with the fusion community is suitable as a metadata schema for the community, providing a rich set of metadata, a few additions are required to better support the FAIR principles such as provision for a globally unique, actionable persistent identifier, suitable licensing information and provenance. This project has received funding from the European Community's Horizon 2020 Framework Programme under grant agreement 847612 |
