Hands-On Webinar: Digitalizing Processes in a FAIR and Standardized Manner Using Designated Digital Tool

In materials research and industrial development, inconsistent metadata, characterization, and modeling documentation can lead to inefficiencies, fragmented data, and limited collaboration. The lack of standardization makes it difficult to reuse or share data across different projects and disciplines.

To address these challenges, it is essential to  adopt structured, interoperable documentation practices that align with the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) data principles. This webinar introduces two powerful tools designed to simplify and standardize the
process of metadata management and experiment documentation. The Vocabulary Manager enables the collection, standardization, and management of vocabulary terms across various domains. The Process Editor Digital Tool enables the documentation of processes, particularly characterization workflows, in a FAIR manner while ensuring compliance with CHADA guidelines.

By attending this webinar, participants will gain an understanding of the importance of standardized documentation in characterization and modeling, explore how the Vocabulary Manager and the Process Editor Digital Tool address these needs, and gain hands-on experience with the tools. The session will include live demonstrations and interactive exercises, allowing attendees to see how these tools work in real-world scenarios.

This webinar is ideal for researchers, engineers, and data managers involved in materials characterization, modeling, and metadata standardization, offering practical solutions to improve data management and enhance collaboration across projects.
