The very active movement of ensuring our scientific data and software are well managed and preserved require the further development of data (and software) stewardship techniques that were likely self-taught, or possibly learned from colleagues. Journals and funders now require that our scientific data (and software) be as open (as possible) and preserved in a manner that supports discovery, access, interoperability, and optimizes reuse. These characteristics embody the FAIR principles. Researchers typically are faced with complying with these new data (and software) preservation requirements at the time of publication. This tends to be out-of-synch with their research work and makes it difficult and time consuming to comply. Plus it can slow down the process of publication. In our work on the PARSEC project, funded by the Belmont Forum, we are leveraging the current research process and adding in the necessary stewardship tasks, when they are most optimal and least disruptive, to capture the necessary information, provenance, decision made about the data, workflows and software necessary to adequate preserve these research objects allowing for better transparency of the process, support integrity, and optimize reuse. In this talk we will share our approach and the tools for others to incorporate the technique. This work is part of the Building New Tools for Data Sharing and Re-use through a Transnational Investigation of the Socioeconomic Impacts of Protected Areas (PARSEC) project with funding provided by the Belmont Forum through the National Science Foundation, Grant 1929464.
