GOOD DATA EXAMPLES
Message of the day
Good data are FAIR – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Re-usable
Things to consider
What makes data good?
- It has to be readable and well enough documented for others (and a future you) to understand.
- Data has to be findable to keep it from being lost. Information scientists have started to call such data FAIR — Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Re-usable. One of the most important things you can do to keep your data FAIR is to deposit it in a trusted digital repository. Do not use your personal website as your data archive.
- Tidy data are good data. Messy data are hard to work with.
- Data quality is a process, starting with planning through to curation of the data for deposit.
