Minimal set of meta data to make models findable
@MarcoAJanssen, @cmbarton. To consider in the wording: meta data can be needed on many levels (e.g. metadata to make it possible to couple models, vs. metadata to make a model findable through the internet).
On findable (earlier discussed during other workshops): there should be a minimal set of metadata / tags available so models can be findable by e.g. repositories.
Some options that might be worth exploring:
- codemeta structured json-ld embedded in versioned computational model landing pages and available in a computational model's git repository or download package. comses.net
- coordinating to establish crosswalks or mappings to the MINT model catalog and metadata
- extensions to codemeta / schema.org that include critical domain specific metadata that may be missing (need domain specialists to step in here!)
For an example of how the embedded structured data is interpreted by Google see https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/u/0/#url=comses.net%2Fcodebases%2F2222

Another resource that may be useful to include for repositories that wish to adopt schema.org for making their resources Findable:
