Why does Louise Leader have to deal with her research data long after the research project has been completed?

Other researchers want to access their data and use them for further research.

Because she forgot to archive it.

She wants to double check the data.

She would like to block it from being used by other researchers by granting appropriate licenses.

What does Louise want from a solution for the re-use of her research data?

The publications should be linked directly to the relevant data, all metadata should be available directly with the data, and access should be possible independently by other researchers.

Nobody should be able to re-use her data, other researchers have to make their own surveys.

The data should be stored on a local server in her private environment. She wants to keep control over the data provision.

When archiving research data, it is important to ensure that ...

... the data are sensibly selected and reasonably named, and have a persistent identifier.

... the data can only be used with proprietary software.

… data and context information are stored separately from one another.

What does FAIR mean in relation to research data?

Data should be findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable.

FAIR is about the application of game theory in the scientific community; in the event of a conflict over data usage, a so-called “FAIR mediator” (referee) is called.

FAIR stands for: Research data should be well-founded, ambitious, realistic and above all equipped with integrity.
