Recommendation 2.0
Recommendation to use ROR as the standard reference in technical infrastructures to organizations where appropriate
Description
[Status: Under development, Date: 2023-10-30, Version: 001]
Motivation for this Recommendation:
The Helmholtz Association is determined to make their data available according to the FAIR principles, thus making it findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. In order to achieve interoperability of datasets among various data infrastructures (DIS) within the Helmholtz Association, a common and agreed procedure to refer to people within and across the DIS is needed.
In order to be able to uniquely and sustainably identify both researchers and employees in data infrastructures and repositories in the Helmholtz Association, the respective person should always be referenced with a persistent identifier (PID).
To achieve this, several stakeholder groups need to be involved. These groups are: 1. Helmholtz Center’s management and policy makers (see recommendation M2.1) 2. Helmholtz Employees contributing to data products (see recommendation M2.2) 3. Helmholtz data stewards and repository maintainers and developers (see recommendation M3.3)
Recommendation
It is recommended that all data infrastructures and repositories of the Helmholtz Association use ROR to identify organizations to resources in data infrastructures wherever and whenever possible. Binding Convention:
| mandatory | conditional | optional | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Helmholtz FAIR Principle | mandatory if ROR is available |
Precondition for Implementation:
