Open Science Plan-Track-Assess Pathways

OSTrails旨在推动规划、跟踪和评估科学知识生产的进程和工具，超越最先进的水平，与各种国家和主题背景合作，改善现有基础设施，并连接关键组成部分。在计划阶段，OSTrails旨在提高数据管理计划的效率，将它们从静态的叙述转变为活的、相互连接的“机器可操作”资源，使其成为提高RDM质量的首选工具。在赛道阶段，OSTrails将建立一个开放、可互操作和高质量的科学知识图谱生态系统，丰富它们成为社区公平实施的证据。在评估阶段，OSTrails的目标是提供模块化和可扩展的公平测试，实现“机器可操作”的衡量标准，并辅之以嵌入在工具中的用户指导，以帮助研究生命周期的任何阶段。作为OSTrails Commons，产生的方法、工具、服务、指导和培训构成了提供端到端解决方案的必要构建块，这些解决方案服务于：(I)研究人员和研究支持人员在研究生命周期的任何阶段实现对任何数字对象的公平；(Ii)研究资助组织、研究执行组织、出版商，以推动任何共享、资助和出版的研究产品的RDM质量的提高。OSTrails将降低计划和实施公平研究的障碍，将刻度盘从公平评估转向公平协助实践；此外，还将通过更加网络化的学术来增强可追溯性和改善基于证据的研究评估。OSTrails深深植根于38个合作伙伴、22个研究执行组织、5个ESFRI集群和24个试点机构的工作，承认没有万能的解决方案，不同的国家和主题基础设施有不同的目标和优先事项，以及精简公平的方法。

OSTrails aims to advance processes and instruments for Planning, Tracking, and Assessing scientific knowledge production beyond state-of-the art, working with various national and thematic contexts, improving existing infrastructure, and connecting key components. For the Plan stage, OSTrails aims to increase the efficacy of Data Management Plans, turning them from static narratives to living, interconnected “machine actionable” resources, making them the instrument of choice for improving quality of RDM. For the Track stage, OSTrails is set to establish an open, interoperable and high-quality ecosystem of Scientific Knowledge Graphs, enriching them to become evidence of communities’ FAIR implementations. For the Assess stage, OSTrails aims to deliver modular and extendable FAIR tests, towards “machine actionable” metrics, complemented by user guidance embedded in tools assisting any stage of research life cycle. Presented as the OSTrails Commons, the resulting methods, tools, services, guidance & training form the necessary building blocks to provide end-to-end solutions that serve: (i) researchers and research support personnel realise FAIR at any stage of the research life cycle, for any digital object; and (ii) research funding organisations, research performing organisations, publishers to drive the improvement of the quality of RDM for any shared, funded and published research product. OSTrails will lower the barriers to plan and practice FAIR research, moving the dial from FAIR assessment to FAIR assisting practice; also, to enhance traceability and improve evidence-based evaluation of research via a more networked scholarship. OSTrails is deeply rooted in the work of 38 partners, 22 research performing organisations, 5 ESFRI Clusters, and 24 pilots, acknowledging that there is no one-size-fits-all solution and that different national and thematic infrastructures have varying goals and priorities, as well as approaches to streamlining FAIR.
