Abstract
Description
Geospatial data are a valuable product of research with potential for sharing and reuse that can be especially powerful for maximizing resources and accelerating the pace of scientific discovery. However, the complex structures, myriad formats, and unique dependencies of GIS technologies, data, and metadata can create barriers to making them findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR). In this webinar, presenters will discuss how geospatial data can be aligned with FAIR principles and how librarians can support this effort in concert with researchers.
