IEA Wind Task 43 Metadata Challenge webinar series #3: One size does not fit all - challenges and barriers in creating the Bridge of Knowledge repository for sharing data.

SIGN UP FOR OUR NEXT WEBINAR!

As part of the IEA Wind Task 43 Metadata Challenge, we run a series of public webinars that aim to improve collaboration between Knowledge Engineering experts and domain experts in the area of wind energy. This month’s webinar is focused on publishing and sharing multi-disciplinary scientific data. We will discuss how open research data repositories like “Bridge of Knowledge” make it possible to share datasets on the web in a sustainable way to increase the availability, consistency and re-use of scientific resources. During the webinar Magda will share the experience regarding creating and establishing research repository based on the a proprietary solution developed by Gdańsk University of Technology teams using open-source technologies and components. The challenges involve a high variety of requirements such as universal for different disciplines' meatadata description, creating a content management tools, providing training of users, and how to enable the future sustainable operation. This webinar will be of interest to a wide range of researchers, repository managers and content providers who wish to use and make their services more effective.
