Here you can read how to use the metadata extension for OpenRefine to store FAIR data and create metadata in FAIR Data Point.
The metadata extension for OpenRefine promotes FAIRness of the data by its integration with FAIR Data Point. With the extension you can easily FAIRify your data that you work on in directly in OpenRefine in two steps:
openrefine-store-data
in configured storage.openrefine-create-metadata
in selected FAIR Data Point.
It replaces the legacy project called FAIRifier.
The extension provides the features only through FAIR Metadata
extension menu located in top right corner above data table (typically next to Wikidata
and others).
