Measuring Data FAIRness: Lessons From the NHS, ONS and IPCC
summary
Claims concrete wins: a Metadata Works catalog built to an ISO triple 179-based schema, populated by a push that yields 450 datasets in three months versus 15 in three years before, and delivers accelerated data readiness 30x. Practical tooling includes DOI minting and altmetric linkage to count views, citations and news mentions, a league table to drive onboarding, and a catalog that surfaces provenance, access requests and reusable mappings so research and governance workflows actually run.
