About I-ADOPT

Goal

The goal of I-ADOPT is to provide an Interoperability Framework for representing FAIR observable properties.

2018: Informal meetings between semantic experts to adress the need for a harmonized syntax to describe observable properties initiated by eLTER RI
2019 - 2021: RDA Working Group InteroperAble Descriptions of Observable Property Terminology WG (RDA I-ADOPT WG)
2022: RDA Endorsment of the I-ADOPT Recommendations (DOI: 10.15497/RDA00071)
2022 - 2024: Domain-specific vocabularies start implement I-ADOPT for their variables
Autumn 2024: Two I-ADOPT Variable Modelling Challenges
Spring 2025: Two I-ADOPT Workshops
July - November 2025: NFDI4Earth I-ADOPT project to develop a prototype for an LLM-assisted I-ADOPT service
2025 - 2027: EU Horizon Europe FAIR2Adapt project (No. 101188256) develops an I-ADOPT service embedded in ROHub to enable interoperable descriptions of RO-Crates
June 2026 - May 2029: EU Horizon Europe CDIF4EOSC project (No. 101292473) will include I-ADOPT in their Cross Domain Interoperability Framework as a Context Profile
2026 - 2027: Developing Extension specification to FAIRify the variables linked to sosa:observedProperty in the OGC Observation, Measurement and Sample standard
2026: The GO FAIR Foundation has assumed patronage over I-ADOPT developments to ensure the long-term preservation of the services and specification.
