How to reach us

FAIR Data Principle
These four FAIR principles form the basis for a sustainable re-use of research data

Findable
Research data should be provided with a digital object identifier (DOI) and should be easy to find.

Accessible
Research data, or at least the associated metadata, should be easily accessible and access to the research data should be described.

Interoperable
Research data should be easy to interpret and use public and free data formats and standards as far as possible.

Re-useable
Data collection and processing are well documented so that research data can be easily reused.
