An Overview of FAIR Assessment Tools!

This overview presents a selection of FAIR assessment tools. The categories also use the acronym FAIR but stand for: Fully Configurable Tools, Automatic Tools, Improved Survey Tools and Regular List Tools. The classification of tools into these categories is not always 100% clear, especially when certain properties overlap. In preparation for the poster, an evaluation of all known FAIR assessment tools was carried out between July and August 2022. Each tool was evaluated by three independent people. The categories used included the time taken to carry out the FAIR assessment, the presence of feedback and the required prior knowledge. With regard to the technical specifics, the research revealed that only generic tools are currently on offer.

The poster was created for the "3. Sächsische FDM-Tagung".

Following tools weren't evaluated:

• FAIRdat (unfinished, beta version of SATISFYD?)
• FAIR-Aware (awarenness, not evaluation questions for dataset)
• 5-Star Data Rating Tool (inaccessible)
