Fostering the integration of European Open Data into Data Spaces through High-Quality Metadata
<|reference_start|>Fostering the integration of European Open Data into Data Spaces through High-Quality Metadata: The term Data Space, understood as the secure exchange of data in distributed systems, ensuring openness, transparency, decentralization, sovereignty, and interoperability of information, has gained importance during the last years. However, Data Spaces are in an initial phase of definition, and new research is necessary to address their requirements. The Open Data ecosystem can be understood as one of the precursors of Data Spaces as it provides mechanisms to ensure the interoperability of information through resource discovery, information exchange, and aggregation via metadata. However, Data Spaces require more advanced capabilities including the automatic and scalable generation and publication of high-quality metadata. In this work, we present a set of software tools that facilitate the automatic generation and publication of metadata, the modeling of datasets through standards, and the assessment of the quality of the generated metadata. We validate all these tools through the YODA Open Data Portal showing how they can be connected to integrate Open Data into Data Spaces.<|reference_end|>
