Findable- Overview
Findable: Metadata and data should be findable for both humans and computers.
Findable is broken down into four principles
| Principle | Verbatim | ELI5 |
|---|---|---|
| F1 | Globally unique and persistent Identifiers | Variables need unique ids |
| F2 | Data are described with rich metadata (defined by R1 below) | Comprehensive codebooks that cover community needs |
| F3 | Metadata clearly and explicitly include the identifier of the data they describe | Codebooks can be linked to data |
| F4 | (Meta)data are registered or indexed in a searchable resource | User interface to search through data/codebooks |
Actions taken to improve SALURBAL Findability
The following sections will detail how we implemented each Findability principle F1-F4.
