I learned, that I am the first to write a reporter plugin, which is part of the #Snakemake organization.

That will change. @fbartusch is working on an #ROCrate plugin. Yours truly is working on a #nanopub plugin. Both will ease publishing workflow analysis metadata and making our computing a bit more transparent. Our motivation? Well, did you ever read a data analysis paper (e.g. from an #Bioinformatis group) recently? See?

I have quite some work to do ...

PS should have tagged you @fbartusch 😉

Just learned about RO-crate to ensure your datasets have standardized metadata. Are there other standards out there?

Research Object Crate (RO-Crate)

RO-Crate is a community effort to establish a lightweight approach to packaging research data with their metadata. It is based on schema.org annotations in JSON-LD, and aims to make best-practice in formal metadata description accessible and practical for use in a wider variety of situations, from an individual researcher working with a folder of data, to large data-intensive computational research environments.

An Introduction to Schema.org and JSON-LD

Name: An introduction to JSON-LD Description: This presentation tutorial introduces Schema.org and JSON-LD, explaining their importance and providing examples of JSON-LD metadata in action. Keywords: metadata, structured data, linked data, semantic web, Schema.org, JSON-LD Guiding Questions What is Metadata? What is Schema.org? What is JSON-LD? What are the types of JSON-LD? How can JSON-LD be visualized? Learning Outcomes Understand what metadata is and why it is essential for organizing, discovering, and reusing data. Learn the importance of Schema.org and why it is necessary. Explore JSON-LD, its structure, and its different types. Requirements/Pre-requisites Some knowledge of the Semantic Web and Linked Open Data would be an advantage Additional info/Metadata Time estimation: 15 minutes Level: Beginner / Introductory Published: 2025-02-24 Latest modification: 2025-02-24 License: CC-By 4.0 Version: 1.0.0 Identifier: DOI:10.5281/zenodo.14920117 Citation: Ravinder, R., & Castro, L.

Experts from ZB MED are represented at #deRSE25 with several contributions. Today at 10am there will be a A 1.5-hour tutorial, introducing “webby FDOs”, a practical approach to FDOs using Research Object Crate (#ROCrate) and FAIR Signposting - with @ljcastro and Rohitha Ravinder, among others from @NFDI4DS. ogy.de/51ov

Planning #FAIR packaging of #plant #phenomics #ResearchData - our current focus is on #ROCrate with #JsonLD to describe domain concepts using #MIAPPE, likely #SSN for sensors, #ProvO (or just #ISA) for provenance, public #vocabularies for each partner's measurement types, etc. and lots of image and CSV files.

#MachineLearning is a key use for the #data.

Should we also be looking at #Croissant?

If so, does anyone have experience of combining Croissant and RO-Crate?

Any insights welcomed.

I've open sourced RdfCrate, a Python library I've been using at work to generate RO-Crates for research metadata.

It was motivated by finding that RDF triples are easier to work with than JSON-LD, and that rdflib is a brilliant foundation to build on top of.
