The goal of this session is to identify common challenges for effective and creditable sharing, publication, and re-use of data and code with the community and to catalyse pathways to their solution.
On the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the RDA, and as we reach the end of our Belmont-funded project, PARSEC (www.parsecproject.org), we feel it is time to discuss the practicalities of collaboration, data and code sharing for publication and re-use across the globe. The PARSEC team–from five geographically-dispersed countries–has collaborated for four years on the collation and harmonisation of data and the development of new methods for sharing data and code as we investigate the socio-economic effects of nature conservation initiatives. We have had very profitable partnerships in this endeavour with several leading data infrastructure and research tool providers, including ORCID, DataCite, the RDA itself, and the World Data System.
We have gained much insight into how we and our communities work in our different domains and countries, and how these infrastructures and tools can assist us achieve the open data and open science goals we all share. However, we all have challenges, and in this session representatives of these key infrastructures and their users will discuss the challenges they face and their vision of the optimum path to the future. The audience will be invited to contribute to the discussion.
The outcomes of this event will be highlighted in the ESES IG session during the plenary.
