Short Description 

To be able to reach your FAIRification goals, having a team with the right skillset is important. The composition of the team depends on the exact goals and different skills may be necessary in different phases of the of the process. See, for example:

    Local data stewards = Data Steward

    Data stewardship is a relatively new profession and a catch-all term for numerous support functions, roles and activities. It implies professional and careful treatment of data throughout all stages of a research process.

    [Generic] 

    Data FAIRification requires different types of expertise and should therefore be carried out in a multidisciplinary team guided by FAIR data steward(s). The different sets of expertise are on i) the data to be FAIRified and how they are managed, ii) the domain and the aims of the data resource within it, iii) architectural features of the software that is (or will be) used for managing the data, iv) access policies applicable to the resource, v) the FAIRification process (guiding and monitoring it), vi) FAIR software services and their deployment, vii) data modelling, viii) global standards applicable to the data resource, and ix) global standards for data access. A good working approach is to organize a team that contains or has access to the required expertise. The core of such a team may be formed by data stewards, with at least expertise of the local environment and of the FAIRification process in general. 

    → teams needs expertise in these areas (these are the exact same as used by De Nove table; I’m guessing de novo used the general paper. That’s great though. )

    1. The data to be FAIRified and how they are managed,

    2. the domain and the aims of the data resource within it

    3. architectural features of the software that is (or will be) used for managing the data

    4. access policies applicable to the resource

    5. the FAIRification process (guiding and monitoring it),

    6. FAIR software services and their deployment,

    7. data modelling,

    8. global standards applicable to the data resource

    9. global standards for data access.
