Abstract

This conference abstract introduces our progress with using the FAIR Digital Object (FDO) paradigm, implemented through RO-Crate, as an interoperability framework in the Biodiversity Digital Twin (BioDT) project. After providing some background on the project and the importance of FAIR in it, the approach followed concerning FDO and RO-Crate is explained, together with our current efforts in structuring the different digital object types in BioDT, as well as the development of metadata profiles and our attempts at aligning with community practices.
