FAIROS-metric-A1-02

This metric ensures that metadata is accessible using standardized communication protocols that support interoperability and automated retrieval.

What is being measured?

Whether the metadata from the Research Object can be retrieved using a standardized, open, and well-documented communication protocol, such as HTTP, HTTPS, OAI-PMH, SPARQL, or REST APIs.

Why should we measure it?

When metadata is exposed through widely adopted protocols, it ensures that systems and tools—regardless of platform—can automatically access and exchange metadata.

What must be provided for the measurement?

The endpoint where the metadata can be accessed.

What are considered valid results?

The metadata is accessible using a standardized communication protocol (e.g., HTTP, HTTPS, OAI-PMH, SPARQL, FTP, REST).
