Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration (HMC)

^{Translated with DeepL.com}

The Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration Platform (HMC) is a decentralized facility of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres with overarching services, advice, information and tools for the efficient handling of metadata. The platform brings together expertise from the specialist domains and research fields in this area.

HMC promotes the qualitative enrichment of research data through metadata and implements it organizationally and technically. In the SCC, we are developing the FAIR Data Commons with technologies and tools to achieve uniform access to metadata on a technical level with the help of standardized interfaces. The results are then available to all research areas of the Helmholtz Association, whereby a close and intensive exchange takes place due to the proximity to the center, especially with the research field Energy, for which the Institute of Automation and Applied Informatics (IAI) is in charge.
