Reusable#


The ultimate goal of FAIR is to optimise the reuse of data. To achieve this, metadata and data should be well-described so that they can be replicated and/or combined in different settings.


For data to be considered Reusable, they should follow the following guidelines.

  1. Meta(data) are richly described with a plurality of accurate and relevant attributes

    1. (Meta)data are released with a clear and accessible data usage license

    2. (Meta)data are associated with detailed provenance

    3. (Meta)data meet domain-relevant community standards
