Title: Making NOAA 'Omics Data FAIR: The NOAA Omics Data Management Guide
Presenter: Katherine Silliman, Research Biologist, NOAA Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory
Abstract: The vision of the NOAA ‘Omics Strategy is to integrate 'omics data across line offices and transform our approach to biological investigation to benefit people, communities, and economies. Key to this vision are effective, standardized data management strategies that account for the diversity of ‘omics data types and facilitate integration with associated environmental data. To begin tackling this challenge, the NOAA Omics Data Management Guide was developed by members of the NOAA ‘Omics community across the agency, and was built from principles provided in the NOAA Data Management Directives Handbook. The Guide is an online resource to provide best practice guidance and tools for ‘omics data management to a variety of end-users, including internal NOAA and affiliate staff, program managers seeking to implement ‘omics tools or integrate with ‘omics data, and NOAA grant recipients. In addition to detailed guidance, this resource provides data management tools including 1) a NOAA Omics Template for writing a data management plan, 2) a collection of study data templates for standardized management of data and metadata, and 3) code to prepare certain ‘omics data types for sharing to OBIS, a UNESCO-funded global repository for marine biodiversity observations. Data management plans that incorporate the principles of the Guide will increasingly be required across NOAA funding programs to meet government mandates for Public Access to Research Results (PARR). Come learn more about how to use the guide and the main recommendations for 'omics data management.
