A CORNERSTONE IN BIOIMAGE DATA SHARING
Founding a Global Image Data Ecosystem
foundingGIDE is enabling bioimage data exchange based on global coordination of technical developments among data infrastructures and communities
foundingGIDE project lays the foundation for a Global Image Data Ecosystem (GIDE) that connects different biological and biomedical image data resources across the globe to allow metadata and data sharing.
GIDE will bring European research infrastructure and image data resource owners together with their counterparts from Australia and Japan to develop the basis of interoperable image data repositories.
foundingGIDE for the life scientist
With an aim to promote image data sharing, the foundingGIDE project will develop guidelines to support life scientists manage, store and share their research data. By adopting suggested practices for Research Data Management, researchers will be able to promote secondary use of their image data and benefit from increased amount of quality image data in Open repositories.
foundingGIDE for the data managers
The sheer scale and limited standardisation of image data makes data sharing a challenge. The foundingGIDE project works on identifying common onotlogies and metadata frameworks to allow efficient data management and sharing across different image data resources, while promoting data interoperability and potential reuse.
foundingGIDE for the world
A key enabling factor for a GIDE is coordination among global communities. The project will bring together global research infrastructures together with research communities for democratising access to quality image data
