OS Trails

Delivering the Commons to Plan-Track-Assess research in EOSC.

OSTrails is a Horizon Europe project to create a new system to appraise scientific knowledge production within the Euroean Open Science Cloud (EOSC). The system should be practical, open and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable). It concerns three phases:

• planning research with machine-actionable data management plans;
• tracking research with scientific knowledge graphs and
• assessing research with FAIR metrics and tools.

The Centre for Digital Scholarship is contributing to a Dutch national pilot on machine-actionable data management plans and templates, together with SURF and the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS).
