This session will examine the challenges faced within institutions as they seek to leverage existing institutional data repositories. Through the lens of real life case histories, we will examine some of the drivers behind the disparate practices that make data sharing so challenging within a university and point to successful strategies for tackling these challenges.
My presentation at the http://neuroinformatics2017.org (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) on FAIR and FAIRsharing (previously BioSharing); metadata standards and their implementation by databases/repositories and adoption by journals' and funders' data policies.

Scope of data and information needed

Sources of information

Advice from the field

Data, Information and Knowledge
DATA - the volume of the
Pacific Ocean
INFORMATION - a book on
the oceanographic
characteristics of the
Pacific Ocean
KNOWLEDGE - a report
containing practical
information on the best
way to sail across the
Pacific Ocean
6. +
Issues for the TDA
The amount of data and information available
will vary from project to project - some regions
are data rich whilst others are data poor
In general the aim of the this step is to identify
high quality data, preferably with some degree
of quality assurance, quality check or peer
review
7. +
Issues for the TDA
For most IW projects, it is likely that data and
information for the TDA:
Will come from multiple sources
May often be difficult to access
May not be entirely appropriate
Will often be uncoordinated in its generation and use
May be intentionally or unintentionally inaccurate
Aggregated with other data sets
Disaggregated if national data needs to be examined at
a more local/basin level
8. +
Scope of Data and Information
Data and information will be needed to confirm
the findings in the TDA. In particular, it is
important to substantiate the:
General situation in the water system
Priority transboundary problems
Key impacts, both environmental and socio-economic
Causal chains – Immediate causes, underlying causes
and root causes
Governance analysis
9. +
Scope of Data and Information
The key to understanding
what kind of data will be
required throughout the
TDA development process
is to fully understand the
water system
A good starting point for
this is the Project
Document, together with
the expertise in the Project
Management Unit and the
TDA development team
10. +
River basin projects often require data and
information on water resources, water
quality, biodiversity, land use etc.
Project to Project Differences
A TDA for an LME project may require data
and information that links to the LME
modules – pollution and ecosystem health;
productivity; fish and fisheries; socio-
economics; and governance.

Stock Taking Exercise
Identify all sources
Ascertain the availability of the data and information
Assess the compatibility and comparability of data sets
and information
Identify where there are gaps
Analyse the quality of data and information
Assess how verifiable the data is (e.g. is it cited or peer
reviewed?)
Determine cost implications (if there are any)

Advice from the Field
Always consider the hierarchy of the data and information
available
Be creative and think laterally - If the answer is always no,
particularly to raw data, ask for analysed data or reports
Develop a network of contacts
Don't be frustrated by lack of data - Many regions are data poor
so think creatively
Manage your assumptions regarding data – perceived vs.
factually supported
16. +
Group Exercise
In groups of 5:
What are the key data and information sources
for this water system?
