Base4NFDI Services Roadshow Announcement - Discover the Future of NFDI Infrastructure, December 4th

Fri Nov 08 2024

Join us for the NFDI-wide roadshow highlighting the basic services currently under development by Base4NFDI. This event offers an opportunity for NFDI participants and beyond to learn how these services will transform research within the NFDI framework and which potential implications it has for DataPLANT. The presented services include: IAM4NFDI, PID4NFDI, TS4NFDI, Jupyter4NFDI, DMP4NFDI, KGI4NFDI, nfdi.software and RDMTraining4NFDI. Registration is possible online from now on (it is an online event).

During the event there will be various presentations: Various teams will showcase their services, explaining the crucial role they play within the NFDI ecosystem, how researchers can utilize them, and outlining the goals for the current development phase.

DataPLANT already tries to align its services with Base4NFDI to enhance compatibility, scalability, and adoption across research domains. Our consortium already collaborates with other consortia and sections within NFDI to consolidate efforts and deliver specialized services while ensuring convergence with the broader NFDI vision. DataPLANT has actively participated in the “(Meta)data, Terminologies, and Provenance” NFDI section, contributing significantly to working groups on “Terminology Services” and “Ontology Harmonization and Mapping.” Further, our consortium supports key Base4NFDI projects like TS4NFDI, DMP4NFDI, and KGI4NFDI. DataPLANT is committed to strengthening its collaboration with TS4NFDI in the second funding period. This includes integrating tools and software developed by TS4NFDI with DataPLANT’s own developments. Here, we will contribute our ontology-based annotation system (SWATE) as a terminology service and adapt the framework for use across other NFDI consortia based on feedback. Building on its activities in the NFDI sections, DataPLANT will actively contribute to ontology harmonization approaches across all NFDIs. To further enhance its representation and align its developments with NFDI goals, DataPLANT will expand its contributions to all working groups within the “(Meta)data, Terminologies, and Provenance” section and participate in future Base4NFDI projects related to metadata.
