Grant Will Advance Standards Promoting Open, High-Quality Data - Eos

"To address these challenges, the Laura and John Arnold Foundation has awarded a grant to a coalition of scientific groups, convened by the American Geophysical Union (AGU), representing the international Earth and space science community. The grant will allow the coalition to develop standards to connect researchers, publishers, and data repositories across the sciences. These standards are meant to render data findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR), with the aim of enhancing the integrity and reproducibility of data and accelerating scientific discovery."
