Pesce V, Tennison J, Mey L et al. A Map of Agri-food Data Standards [version 1; not peer reviewed]. F1000Research 2018, 7:177 (document) (doi: 10.7490/f1000research.1115260.1)
The GODAN Action project supports data users, producers and intermediaries to effectively engage with open data and maximise its potential for impact in the agriculture and nutrition sectors.
The project is part of the GODAN programme that promotes the proactive sharing of open data to make information about agriculture and nutrition available, accessible and usable.
The map of data standards supports the GODAN Action task of mapping relevant standards and identifying areas where the lack of standards is inhibiting.
The objectives of this task are:
• To map currently available open and proprietary standards in use for the exchange of key data on agriculture and nutrition;
• To identify where a lack of standards is inhibiting the effective use of agricultural and nutritional data and the best methods for promoting open data standards.
