IVOA standards records in FAIRsharing: Time Domain Working Group

[Allyson Lister]

Dear IVOA team,

I’m contacting you on behalf of FAIRsharing (https://fairsharing.org, https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/01/17/245183, http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/database/baw075), the online registry of scientific data standards, databases and policies. Our aim is to make your resource as visible as possible to as large an audience as possible.

We have created a number of FAIRsharing records describing and collecting your standards. All IVOA standards have been grouped into a single collection available at https://fairsharing.org/collection/IVOA. The individual URLs for those IVOA standards within your working group are also listed below.

To ensure our information is as correct and up to date as possible, would you (as groups and/or individuals) consider claiming these records? Due to the large number of records that we have for IVOA, once you have created the user account(s) you wish to use, I am happy to directly add those users as maintainers for the records myself, to save you some time. Alternatively, once logged in, you can click on the "Claim Ownership" buttons for each record to request ownership of the record.

Claiming a record as either a group or an individual also gives you the opportunity to make changes to the record yourself, allowing you complete control over how your resource is displayed in FAIRsharing. In addition, if you claim a record(s) as an individual, you can link the record to your ORCID.

FAIRsharing is about making your resource discoverable to a variety of users, such as journals and publishers, researchers and service providers, research and infrastructure projects and programmes, as well as curators, librarians, funders and other policy makers and data scientists (https://fairsharing.org/communities). A contact is essential should they have any questions about your resource.
