FAIR Digital Object Assessment and Acceleration Approaches at the World Data System

After outlining the structure and mission of the World Data System (WDS), our presentation at the FDO Summit Berlin describes how the WDS provides a multi-faceted approach to accelerating FAIR Digital Objects (FDOs) by evaluating, reusing and extending previous FAIRification work, and by providing testbeds to improve automation and prioritization. Based on feedback from planned knowledge transfer and dissemination activities, FAIR Implementation Profiles (FIPs) and FAIR Enabling Resources (FERs) can be evaluated to improve interoperability between repositories that should have a comprehensive metadata schema.
