Research across the Helmholtz Association is based on inter- and multidisciplinary collaborations across its 18 Centres and beyond. However, the (meta)data generated through Helmholtz research and operations is typically siloed within institutional infrastructures and often within individual teams. The result is that the wealth of the association’s (meta)data is stored in a scattered manner,...
Establishing semantic data and knowledge graphs in scientific working groups is no easy feat. In most cases there is neither a user friendly tool chain nor experience with ontologies for the respective research field. But without a start, said experience can never be gained. The same is true for individuals that want to start into the field.
We thus see knowledge graph development not as a...
The field of clinical research data is rich in information that is often underutilized due to the complexity resulting from heterogeneous representations of the data and the lack of suitable tooling for its harmonization. Ineffective data preprocessing hinders potential insights and prevents effective reuse and combination of data that could otherwise drive progress in the scientific field by...
We present a workflow to improve the management of Magnetic Resonance Imaging data and to increase its compliance with the FAIR principles. This involves using the JSON Metadata Mapping Tool we have developed to map metadata from a domain-specific file format to a JSON schema based format, and storing the data and the mapped metadata in repositories. Some steps in the workflow are automated,...
The Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC) has developed the HMC
dashboard on Open and FAIR Data in Helmholtz. The dashboard allows users
to monitor and interactively analyze statistics on open and FAIR data
produced by researchers in the Helmholtz Association. It can be used to
analyze in which repositories Helmholtz researchers make their data
publicly available, to monitor...
