Please find attached herewith two summary data table we are working at this moment.

  • Satellite data FAIRness for Vulnerability Assessments in the disaster risk reduction. A case study in under process to show case

  • FIP data response for the Fiji Case Study. The purpose of this assessment is to take varying data content and formats from different data providers and make it available to potential users in a standard format, with standard content, via a standard mechanism.

We would be glad to discuss some issues on DRR vocabularies needs, status, governance and sustainability from this expert group. Our purpose is produce a policy document to summarize

  • DRR vocabulary needs- why we need it and current status/challenges

  • Governance structure of DRR vocabulary- Hazard, exposure and vulnerability database

  • How the overall data structure/stewardship could enhance DRR assessment

  • Summarized the challenges and needs through a case study on tropical cyclone hazard

On Sustainable DarwinCore MIxS Interoperability:

  • A mapping exercise between the two major metadata community standards used for biomolecular biodiversity observations: TDWG’s DarwinCore and the GSC’s MIxS checklists. See the webpage and report.

On Ocean Data and Information System (ODIS) :

  • The Ocean InfoHub Project website is a good resource to understand the underlying structure to ODIS (has some general information on the project in addition to Core Patterns (e.g. Core 1 Experts and Institutions) used to contribute to ODIS). Further, this presentation on OIH and ODIS might help (also available in languages other than English).

  • Environmental Ontologies (ENVO): Raïssa is working with UNEP to build a machine readable classification system for marine plastics for SDG14.1.1). The ENVO GH Wikis might be an important resource to understand how the ontologies work, how they are developed, and how they support interoperability.
