In the field of polar and marine environmental research, a diverse array of items including instruments, platforms, models, custom-built facilities, and lab equipment are routinely employed. This results not only in substantial volumes of collected data, but also generates a wealth of accompanying metadata.
In this talk, we highlight the practical utility of registry.awi.de — an...
Light exposure significantly impacts various aspects of human psychology and physiology, including cognition, mood and circadian rhythm. The light in the real world has sophisticated characteristics; it is spatially articulated and temporally varying, even Changing the head direction and eye movement alter it. How the visual and non-visual light-mediated brain pathways encode these spatial and...
Personalized light exposure data is progressively gaining importance in various sectors, including research, occupational affairs, and fitness tracking. Data are collected through a proliferating selection of wearable loggers and dosimeters, varying in size, shape, functionality, and output format. Despite or maybe because of numerous use cases, the field lacks a unified framework for...
FAIR WISH - FAIR Workflows to establish IGSN for Samples in the Helmholtz Association is an HMC funded project of the first cohort 2020. IGSN, the International Generic Sample Number, is a globally unique, citable and persistent identifier (PID) for physical samples with discovery functionality in the internet. IGSNs enable direct links between data, publications and the originating samples...
Time-series data are crucial sources of reference information in all environmental sciences. Publishing such data consistently and timely for monitoring and warning purposes becomes more and more important. In this context, the Helmholtz-Centers from the research field Earth and Environment (E&E) operate some of the largest measurement-infrastructures worldwide (e.g., TERENO, DANUBIUS or...
The Sample Environment Communication Protocol (SECoP) provides a generalized way for controlling measurement equipment – with a special focus on sample environment (SE) equipment [1]. In addition, SECoP holds the possibility to transport SE metadata in a well-defined way.
SECoP is designed to be
- simple to use,
- inclusive concerning different control systems and control philosophies,...
Biomolecules, such as DNA and RNA, provide a wealth of information about the distribution and function of marine organisms, and biomolecular research in the marine realm is pursued across several Helmholtz Centers. Biomolecular metadata, i.e. DNA and RNA sequences and all steps involved in their creation, exhibit great internal diversity and complexity. However, high-quality (meta)data...
Joint data analyses may overcome challenges of traditional literature-based meta-analysis owing to the use of harmonized exposure and outcome definitions as well as statistical modelling. It also allows to re-use existing data for other research purposes in more flexible ways to increase scientific impact. Achieving FAIR (meta)data by generating interoperable, harmonized, high quality metadata...
Simulation of aerospace or automotive structures can be ultimately improved by reflecting the actual manufacturing status of the produced parts in detail. This is especially the case for composite structures in view of the complexity of the involved manufacturing processes and their influence on the product reliability. High-fidelity numerical models have to be developed to reflect the actual...
Using terminologies can empower scientists and infrastructure providers to realise a machine-processable expression of the information contained in their research data and other academic outputs. In the academic world, the ambiguity of terms and the lack of appropriate keywords is tedious and annoying to both, scientists and machines. In addition, there is a lack of controlled vocabularies in...
