This metric evaluates whether the protocol used to retrieve metadata referenced by the provided identifier is either HTTP or HTTPS and therefore openly specified, free to implement, and universally im…
open protocol for (meta)data retrieval. This metric aligns with FAIR Principle A1.1.
If the resolution protocol supports authentication and authorization for access to restricted content.A1.2 requires that the protocol used to retrieve research objects clearly describes any necessary …
This metric evaluates whether there is a policy for metadata persistence declared by the managing database and included within its FAIRsharing database record metadata.A2 requires that metadata remain…
metadata is long-lived and independently accessible. This metric aligns with FAIR Principle A2.
This metric evaluates whether the identifier provided as input satisfies the EOSC-PID aligned [FAIRsharing definition](https://fairsharing.gitbook.io/fairsharing/record-sections-and-fields/general-inf…
This metric evaluates whether the identifier provided as input satisfies the EOSC-PID aligned FAIRsharing definition of global uniqueness.Why should we measure it?FAIR Principle F1 requires that metad…
This metric evaluates whether the metadata record explicitly includes the identifier of the research object(s) it describes.F3 requires that metadata include the identifier(s) of the research object(s…
This metric evaluates whether the metadata record includes its own identifier, distinct from the identifier assigned to the research object it describes.This metric is concerned with the record-level …
This metric evaluates whether metadata can be discovered by web-based search engines. The evaluation requires the identifier to first resolve to its metadata; then, both the identifier and the content…
This metric evaluates whether there is a declared metadata model or format that is based in a representation format that is considered grounded / linked data within the FAIRsharing registry (for more …
This metric evaluates whether there is a declared relationship (related to, implements or outputs) to a model/format from the hosting database for the provided identifier in the FAIRsharing registry, …
Metadata uses a formal, accessible, shared, broadly applicable language. This metric aligns with FAIR Principle I1.
This metric evaluates whether there is a resolved metadata representation that conforms to a recognised semantic knowledge representation language.I1 requires that metadata use a formal, accessible, s…
This metric evaluates whether there is a structured metadata representation returned upon resolution of the provided identifier.I1 requires that metadata use a formal, accessible, shared and broadly a…
This metric evaluates whether the property terms (predicates or keys) used within the metadata record under evaluation are themselves resolvable.Implementations should inspect the structure or context…
This metric evaluates whether the controlled values (objects or targets) linked to property terms within the metadata record under evaluation are themselves resolvable.Implementations should check the…
This metric evaluates whether there are qualified (labelled or named) links in the metadata that reference external IRIs; specifically, IRIs that do not share the same domain name as that of the provi…
This metric evaluates whether there are qualified (labelled or named) links in the metadata that reference other research objects; notably, unlike the FM_I3_M_QualRef Metric, this metrics, does NOT re…
This metric evaluates whether there is at least one licence declared at the database level in the FAIRsharing registry record associated with the identifier under evaluation (see FAIRsharing [document…
This metric evaluates whether there is an explicit licence declaration present in the metadata retrieved upon resolution of the provided identifier. R1.1 requires that metadata be released with a clea…
This metric evaluates whether there is evidence that the research object identifier(s) linked to the metadata identifier provided to the evaluation is cited in one or more scholarly publication reposi…
This metric evaluates whether there is structured affiliation information associated with at least one author or core contributor in the metadata retrieved upon resolution of the provided identifier, …
This metric evaluates whether there is at least one dc:creator with an ORCID in the metadata retrieved upon resolution of the provided identifier, providing one facet of evaluation for this R1.2.R1.2 …
This metric evaluates DOIs to determine whether there is structured funding information declared in the metadata retrieved upon resolution of the provided identifier, providing one facet of evaluation…
