FAIRagro Workshop on Data Quality for Data Analytics in Agrosystem Science

6. / 7. December 2023 at University of Bonn


In the domain of agricultural systems, the fusion of mobile sensing, machine learning, and plant phenotyping unlocks far-reaching opportunities for sustainable crop production. With the aim of exploiting these potentials in the best possible way, a quality-assured research data management (RDM) for generating, publishing, and accessing research data is currently being developed in the initiative of FAIRagro.

To make such a data infrastructure usable across different disciplines, it is crucial to identify data aggregation, processing, and quality levels that are optimal for multi-modal data analytics. The workshop aims to exploit synergies and bring together knowledge from different expert domains in order to identify commonalities and establish shared guidelines. Notably, such guidelines can help contributors resolve ambiguities with respect to data standards required for sharing their data.

Within two half days, from December 6-7, 2023, at the University of Bonn, the workshop will provide its participants the opportunity to give short presentations of recent and on-going research. Of interest in these presentations is a focus on


Topics of particular relevance include but are not limited to

in the context of agrosystem science.

 

Presentations will be selected based on abstract submissions which should not exceed 500 words. Panel discussions and/or round tables will facilitate exchange to identify commonalities in the processing and quality assurance of data across the varying domains. To allow the quality of data to be traceable and transparent, the discussions will further serve to establish requirements for the documentation of data quality. There will also be space for researchers to engage partners interested in collaborative research. Please note that a presentation is welcome but not mandatory to participate in the workshop.



Registration

Please register for the workshop until the 29th of November using our web form. The registration is free of charge.
