Description

The Findability of research data is an important factor in enabling re-use and support the research data life
cycle. In this report, we analyze the findability of data from KonsortSWD partners: we conducted a survey and
interviews with the RDC, analyzed web traffic and query logs. From this analysis, we formulate a findability
strategy and hands-on recommendations for partners on how to improve their findability, including
recommendation on how to shape their metadata. With this contribution, we lay a foundation for on-going
activities to sustainably improve the discoverability and visibility of our research data.
