Workshop on Metadata Catalogues

Content provider

ExPaNDS is the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) Photon and Neutron Data Service.

The ambitious ExPaNDS project is a collaboration between 10 national Photon and Neutron Research Infrastructures (PaN RIs) as well as EGI. The project aims to deliver standardised, interoperable, and integrated data sources and data analysis services for Photon and Neutron facilities.

Objectives

FAIR data principles

ExPaNDS’s ambition is to coordinate activities to enable national PaN RIs to make the majority of their data open following the FAIR principles; Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable.

Harmonising EOSC services

ExPaNDS will allow data to be tailored to the user’s needs, and will harmonise their efforts to migrate data analysis workflows to EOSC platforms, allowing them to be shared in a uniform way.

Workshop on Metadata Catalogues

Presentations from the Workshop on Metadata Catalogues.
Different solutions for the implementation of a data catalogue are in use, the most common ones are ICAT and SciCat. Some ExPaNDS partners still need to make their choice. This workshop aims to assist this decision making by presenting ICAT and SciCat and highlighting the technical differences.
