Define Data Model for the catalogue:

[proccaserra]

Scope clarity: what is that we are cataloguing: Project AND Datasets Project: should we index all known IMI projects listed from IMI site or only those FAIRplus (and eTRIKS) have engaged with Datasets: complex objects with many data modalities and many dataset releases (accrual datasets, longitudinal datasets -> versioning, relevant for all prospective cases, ie IMI engaging currently with FAIRplus). Note: for many finished projects, this is irrelevant (the retrospective use case

initial representation with DATS model:

main advantage: json schema validation json context files for:

• DCAT: compatibility with other data catalogues implementing the w3c standard
• schema.org : search engine visibility, indexing by Google Dataset Search
• OBOfoundry like resources: mapping to bio entities of relevance

know limitation:

• project information may be lacking -> extend by adding a project_schema.json component
