Popis: | Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Reusability have become important principles in the geoscience community as it makes standardisation and openness a priority, so that these keywords are nowadays in focus for any new project at institutional, national and international levels. In seismology and its community that uptake has been extremely rapid and the level of FAIRness reached can be considered well above average within geoscience. But what “well above average” means and how to quantitatively assess FAIRness within this domain and compare seamlessly to others remains challenging.Taking advantage of ongoing national and international projects, a group of data managers from the EPOS seismological community started a collaboration with the FAIR-IMPACT project and its F-UJI developers aiming at enhancing the FAIR assessment process for specific domains. The group went through a process of mutually increasing awareness and understanding of FAIR definitions and their interpretations, including machine readability. Outcomes included F-UJI developers becoming more aware of the overall granularity and conception of research datasets including standard data and metadata formats used in seismology; revisions to landing pages; and updating guidelines to harmonise DataCite metadata for datasets within the domain.In this presentation we outline the liaison process established by the seismological data managers with F-UJI and introduce the first outcomes. We present the initial guidelines developed, a summary of selected FAIR assessments and finally we propose to further discuss FAIR assessment within the seismological formal governance body, namely the International Federation of Digital Seismograph Networks (FDSN) as a commission of IASPEI.
