Description
NeXus is a well established standard for data exchange of neutron, x-ray and muon large scale facilities. Being around for over 20 years with dedicated governance structures it serves as a successful example of a long-lived standard. NeXus as an ecosystem can be difficult to navigate as people refer to its parts using varying terminology and sometimes having different concepts in mind even when using similar terms. The NeXus community can benefit greatly by connecting and later aligning their established semantic and procedural approaches with standardised definitions from information science, particularly around metadata standards and controlled vocabularies.
This Poster connects Nexus' different parts to some of the more consistent taxonomies of metadata standards and vocabularies and highlight NeXus' strength of allowing for top-down and bottom-up evolution of the standard.
