FAIRDOM-SEEK includes a [JSON](https://www.json.org/) Application Programming Interface (API) that allows the searching, listing, reading, updating and creating of many items in your FAIRDOM-SEEK instance, along with their attributes.
8

FAIRDOM-SEEK supports RDF export (in Turtle format) and can be configured with a SPARQL endpoint. RDF generation will include [Extended Metadata](extended_metadata.html) when present for the attributes that include an identifier, and similarly some basic RDF is generated for Samples.
Extended Metadata is a feature added to FAIRDOM-SEEK as part of version 1.11, originally to support plant phenotyping [(MIAPPE)](https://github.com/MIAPPE/MIAPPE).
8
+
It provides the ability to define additional metadata attributes for a particular type (such as Event, DataFile or Model).
9
+
This feature is useful in many other communities who adhere to a particular metadata standard, such as [NFDI4Health](https://fair-dom.org/fairdom-in-use/nfdi4health).

[FAIR Data Station](https://fairds.fairbydesign.nl/) integration provides a lightweight approach to gathering, validating, and ingesting metadata through the use of spreadsheet templates and following FAIR principles. Current support includes the matching of metadata attributes configured in FAIR Data Station with those of pre-configured Extended Metadata Types which are then automatically applied.

**Data Catalogue** – The data catalogue in FAIRDOM-SEEK includes raw [Datasets](https://fairdomhub.org/data_files), [Documents](https://fairdomhub.org/documents), [Standard Operating Procedures(SOPs)](https://fairdomhub.org/sops), [Models](https://fairdomhub.org/models), [Publications](https://fairdomhub.org/publications) and [Presentations](https://fairdomhub.org/presentations). All data are grouped by projects, and associated with the researchers who produced them. Documents can be put into [collections](https://fairdomhub.org/collections). In order to encourage sharing of data we allow researchers flexibility in the formats they upload and share their data in. This means data formats in the FAIRDOM-SEEK catalogue can vary. We do offer a set of “best practice” guidelines for researchers who want to make their data available and usable to the widest possible audience.

Most common formats allow viewing within the browser, without a download, with additional enhanced features for spreadsheets and SBML models.

**Access Control** – Data will go through a research lifecycle between collection and publication. In a competitive academic environment it is important that the data can be shared with collaborators, and then the wider community at appropriate points within the life-cycle. FAIRDOM-SEEK allows users to keep their uploaded data entirely private, to share between individuals, then across entire projects, until eventually making it public upon publication.
28

A gatekeeper role can be assigned to manage sharing of a project's assets.

**People index** – FAIRDOM-SEEK contains an [index of people](https://fairdomhub.org/people) where users can browse, or keyword-search, profiles of the projects, groups and people that contribute to the data on the site. People can describe their areas of expertise, which allows other users to quickly identify the right people to approach regarding specialist enquiries and collaboration proposals.

33
**Samples** – FAIRDOM-SEEK has a flexible samples framework that allows users to generate templates for sample metadata. Samples can be data, or laboratory samples. The framework integrates with Rightfield sheets, so that semantically-enhanced title sheets can be included with the data. The default Rightfield sheet uses the JERM and allows automatic generation and linking of the data files to an assay.

34
Sample attributes can be limited to controlled vocabularies backed by an ontology.

We believe that many aspects of the ISA framework are equally appropriate for describing experiments beyond Omics and Biology, so allow this framework to be applied to all data.

Beyond the ISA framework, FAIRDOM-SEEK allows data to be interlinked within the site itself in order to describe their relationship.

If research resulted in a publication, this can also be registered with FAIRDOM-SEEK (including accreditation to relevant people) using a [PUBMED](http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed) identifier or [DOI](http://www.doi.org/),
46

**Publishing and licensing** – If research resulted in a [publication](publishing_and_doi.html), this can also be registered with FAIRDOM-SEEK (including accreditation to relevant people) using a [PUBMED](http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed) identifier or [DOI](http://www.doi.org/),
43
47
and linked to the assets involved in that research – allowing other researchers access to use, examine, or validate the data that would otherwise be unavailable through the publication alone.
48
+
FAIRDOM-SEEK can be set up as [registration hub](publishing_and_doi.html) for your publications and issue DOIs.
49
+
50
+
We recommended giving a license to public resources in FAIRDOM-SEEK to clarify under what terms they may be used. A Project administrator may specify the default license for their project which is automatically selected when creating a new item, but can be changed by the user if necessary.
51

52

**API and programmatic access** – The [JSON API](api_and_programmatic_access.html) allows the searching, listing, reading, updating and creating of many items in your FAIRDOM-SEEK instance, along with their attributes. FAIRDOM-SEEK supports RDF export (in Turtle format) and can be configured with a SPARQL endpoint.
53
+
54
+
**Bioschemas support** – A **sitemap.xml** is generated for all public content, improving indexing by the main search engines, and supports [Bioschemas](https://bioschemas.org/) scraping. Bioschemas (and therefore [schema.org](https://schema.org/)) metadata is generated for each asset type in FAIRDOM-SEEK, using the common Bioschemas profiles such as Project, Sample and DataSet.

FAIRDOM-SEEK has adopted an ISATAB style structure for organising experiments and data.

The ISA format (Investigations, Studies and Assays) is a community standardisation activity to allow the association of multiple 'Omics datasets, in the context of the experiments that created them, in order to make it easier to compare and combine different data sets. It also provides the possibility of exporting or importing data from other sources in ISA-TAB format and therefore allows data exchange with a wider community.

With a quick glance it also is possible to see what items they have been involved with producing, what experiments they have been doing, and what registered publications they are an author of. For people who have provided their [ORCID](https://info.orcid.org/what-is-orcid/), you can click through to view their wider publishing record.
We recognise that the institutions people work for are important too. For each person, you can assign an [ROR](https://ror.org/about/), a persistent identifier for research institutions.

ROR makes it easier to disambiguate institution names and connect research organisations to researchers and research outputs.
