MatWerk Schemas and Terminology Exchange

MSTE


Welcome to the NFDI MatWerk Schemas & Terminology Exchange 👋

👉 This repository lists semantic resources including (1) metadata schemas, (2) specifications, (3) (semantic) data formats, (4) semantic artefacts, (5) further resources, and (6) subject agnostic resources that are relevant and used in the field of Material Science and Engineering. 👈

Contributions are welcome 🚀

Would you like to add a MSE-related schema? Do you know of some relevant resources in the field?

Please feel free to contribute to this repository by creating an issue including name of the resource, links to the repository and documentation as well as a brief description/keywords.

You can also contact us at MatWerkOMS@fz-juelich.de
