Q&A questions | |
Notes | Approach 1: We did a Data Quality webinar in the past (Quality Reporting Framework)
Approach 2: There’s an approach that says quality can only be assessed when you know the research question, data is either fit for it, or not (rich metadata dimension: statistical accuracy, etc.)
Approach 3: If you’re an archive who wants an understanding of data quality. What metrics? FAIRness! Fair assessment metrics. What does this mean?
