Description

Schema.org is a controlled vocabulary that makes it easier for web pages to
describe their actual content in a semantic, structured and machine-processable way. It is
recognized by major search engines and data aggregators, making it easier for researchers
to expose metadata describing their research outcomes. Here we present how Schema.org is
used (or planned to be used) by some NFDI consortia, becoming a lightweight approach to
harmonize digital objects coming from different sources so they can be connected to each
other in a meaningful way.
