About

FAIR Data Station is an open-source web application developed at Wageningen University & Research as part of FAIR by Design. Its Metadata Configurator builds Excel metadata templates for the ISA levels investigation, study, observation unit, sample and assay, drawing on community checklists such as those of ENA and MIxS. The Station validates filled-in templates and converts valid metadata to RDF for downstream processing. It can also generate ENA submission files, import existing ENA BioProjects, connect to iRODS/Yoda and be used through a REST API. A public instance runs at fairds.fairbydesign.nl, and you can also run your own.
