Required pre-conditions for questions:

- The question should be focused at one specific resource type

- The resource type requires a nanopublication template for specifing the metadata elements

RD keystones of interoperability at Community and intercommunity level is one goal of this questionnaire

Proposed questions:

FIP semantic interoperability related questions:

1. FIP-F2-question: What metadata schema do you use for findability?

RD: usable or not / rewording / duplicate questions for dummies
See if fundamental think is missing for our purpose. 

2. FIP-I1-question: What knowledge representation language (allowing machine interoperation) do you use?

3. FIP-I2-question:What structured vocabulary do you use to encode your datasets?

4. FIP-I3-question:What semantic model do you use?

5. FIP-F4-question (modified): Which registration service do you use to publish your semantic artefacts? see page

New questions:

6. FIP-I3 question: What (semantic) mappings do you use between metadata standards? - Or:

Which crosswalk do you use between metadata standards?

7. Which crosswalk do you use between semantic models?

8. Which workflow process do you use to annotate your data?

9. Which metadata editor do you use?

 

--------

Additional questions proposed, but not strictly related to interoperability:

10. Which workflows do you use to grant data quality?

 

Please comment (using the question numbers) and suggest new questions!

Question 6: I assigned to I3 - (semantic) mappings and semantic model, but I see that mappings represents using tools to semantic models

I think it makes no sense to ask about a mapping between terms in vocabularies. I think it would be enough to be more precise in the description of vocabularies (so change the metadata template accordingly) and add all semantic artefacts to which the resource described is mapped

Question 8: I extended the question with "workflow-processes" - the same as in question 7 I couldn't found an adequate FER Type - so we need to elaborate a nanopublication

Question 9: For this question I couldn't found a FER-Type "metadata tool". For me its not the same as "metadata schema". From my point of view for tools we need a separate FER-Type.

Dear Thomas the FIP questionnaire exists already, but I can change the wording for that if everybody wants to do it. The focus for now should be on the new questions I think

Following today's discussion, I wonder if we shouldn't take into account the diverse level of the respondents, and to proceed with conditional questions. Example :

1a Do you use a specific and documented metadata schema for description and findability?
1b (conditional) What metadata schema do you use for description and findability?

5a Did you produce documented semantic artefacts?
5b (conditional) If so, did you share them through some form of availability or publication?
5c (conditional) If so, please name the tool or registration service used to publish them.

and s.o.

Please discard if irrelevant.

I see what you mean, I will try to explain this a bit further, but the main reason to stick to the FIP questionnaire is that we can reuse the ontology and need only to extend the typs. Otherwise we will not be able to generate full machine readable output. We could though generate a new ontolgy, but this takes a bit more time.... I think your comments important and will try to find a way how to consider them

ad 1. FIP-F2-question: What metadata schema do you use for findability? :
This is related to what Thomas commented above :
1. I would expand the question to "What metadata schema do you use to describe and expose your metadata for findability?", because most research coomunities use md schemas to provide their metadata (via OAI-PMH, schema.org or via other protocols) to metadata aggrgators as OpenAIRE, fairshairing, B2FIND, google data search, ...) that will make the referencced data findable in their search protals.

(related to 1.a comment by Thomas) and furthermore I would like to see, that people who are answering the question can click on the question or 'metadata schema' and can select from a list of known metadataschemes (DataCite, DDI, ISO119xxx, DublinCore, ...) or is this anyway intended/planned for the FIP questionaire

ad 3. FIP-I2-question:What structured vocabulary do you use to encode your datasets? : Hmm, is this not the same question as 1. ? Or what 'encode a dataset' means ? Again concrete examples would help.

My first comment: duplicate questions with a "dummy" level when non understanding (I think I am not able to answer -> take the opportunity to explain why

Romain David

We have to construct a Test and to record the test with the questionnaire to measure efforts and discrepencies in questions understanding (can be provided shortly by zoom recorded interviews)

ad 5. FIP-F4-question (modified): Which registration service do you use to publish your semantic artefacts? : what do you mean with registration service ? E.g. DataCite to register DOIs ? Or registries to register md schemas or/and crosswalks, like MSCR (not ready yet, but will be developed in FAIRCORE4EOSC) or OntoPortal or FIP ? Again : concrete examples are helpful.
